My own street was when I first moved in but as time passed, many drivers in a hurry to get to work would come off the freeway top end into my street and zip along faster than on the main road and be able to miss the lights at the intersection too. Then it also became a parking place for those who travel to the city by bus and come back for their cars at the end of the day. It's only mildly annoying. I like the sound of your house, two up-two down, plus kitchen and bath. I'd be happy in one of those. Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.com
