Subject: [permaculture] West Lima, WI early 1900s

A few photo-postcards from the early 1900s of West Lima, WI, the tiny
town that Dreamtime Village is located in. At the time of these photos
this place was a thriving metropolis of 300 or so & most people rarely
left town because everything they needed to get by could be purchased
in town. Now West Lima is about 60 people & the sole business is the
pepsi machine across the street. My fave foto in this series is the
one called "The Streets of West Lima" which shows the crossroads
outside my door, but back then there was a big old elm right in the
middle of the crossroads. These days the tree is gone but now we have
Amish teenagers speeding thru the 4 way stop without stopping.
