Family memories of towns, traffic and trams.
Oops - made a mistake with my first link - all correct second time round.

Upright, vertical, and all of that! :)
A couple of street scenes mixed in with a family story are my contribution this week...

Oops, first I wrote about next week's prompt, but now I have the right one with a street scene.
A few photos of Downtown Detroit and Phoenix and a bit of local history of my parents' hometown.
