You wouldn't believe there were seven families within sight and many more out of sight of the store would you? Mother has two other pictures. You might send this to her later. This was taken before they had cleared the stumps away and a tee. In front you can see the electric cars go past. The store [unreadable] takes 40 minutes to run to Seattle.

Aurora Avenue North also known as Washington State Highway 99.
