Thanks so much for your nice comments. Glad that this blog is a good trip down “Memory Lane” for you. My husband, Jim, says that if you look at Google Maps Satellite View off of Surmont Drive you can make out part of the old RR path (some of it is obstructed by trees). I’m looking but not making it out, though – perhaps one of our other readers can help?

Great site and great for me to reminisce about the old days growing up in this area. I’m intrigued by the old mansion and railroad that was next to Belgatos Park back in the day and wondering if you had any information. I used to hike this as a kid all the time and now am curious about the history. Let me know!

Regards,

Thanks for stopping by. I have a bunch of sites and blogs – love to write, so this is fun and also good business for me. Wishing you all the best in NO.

Actually at this small meeting, everyone except one or two did want the speed bump and were also very happy with the placement.

I agree with you on Bacigalupi also needing one between Harwood and Belwood Gateway! Sometimes cars fly around the corner from Harwood – it is scary when we back out of our driveway at times!

Stop signs get run all over the neighborhood. Every time we go out for a walk we see, at a minimum, people “rolling through” but sometimes not even slowing down. The worst I’ve seen have been on Westhill and Harwood, but it’s everywhere….
