Life on Long Island in 1930's in Wantagh by Mother Doris

[smartguynetwork]

Nice retrospect into long island of the past...well done.

This was wonderful, and what a great speaking voice Doris has. Long Island must have been virtually empty back then compared to now. Actually, where I live in Seaford a man just sold his family farm the size of an entire block about a year or two ago, and now they're building houses on the land. I always wondered how he could afford paying the property taxes every year since he was so elderly. It's unbelievable how luxurious life has become since the 1930s.
