As a resident of the town of Easton for thity years I have seen lots of changes. From the Dam at Flyaway pond breaking and the flooding that accured that year to the building boom. Over the years I am glad to see alot of the beautiful sights to see were not destroyed. Boarderland park is one of my favorite places as I remembered camping there with boyscout troop 71 with Richard Daley as Scoutmaster. Also the antique car meets at the railroad station with the Easton built Morse car. I had my picture in the Easton paper sitting in that car. It was great growing up in the 60's in the 02334 section of town with Mrs. Anna Hanscom as Postmistress. A very wonderful lady I'll always remember. More later...
Other great times were fishing at New pond and Old pond. Hiking through the woods down the old cart paths that criss-crossed from Poquanticut Ave to Bay Rd. To the Dairy farm that was at the 5 corners Rt. 106 on the left side toward Mansfield, we used to stop traffic on Foundry St to get the cows across to the other side. Also I remember that traffic was stop and go on Fri - Sat nights as traffic had to stop at the 5 stop signs that were at the 5 corners when everyone was going to the dog track. Traffic was backed up all the way up the hill to 123 Norton. Those were the days. Lol...
