Oh. You must have been closer to Bear Park

There were a bunch of streets with Flower names on my side of the gully, but I guess there were some on the other side too. I just assumed you were party of the neighborhood with flower street names on my side. What years did you live there? Did you know Sohms, Voigtlaender, James or any of those families? They may have been further east and lived on the streets with mineral names.

That's just not an option anymore. At least not with any home recently built

There is the key. Buy an older home. It will have a yard.

There's a balance though. I don't want to buy an old house that'll have to fix
