Thanks for all of your guesses.

Quite a contrast to today, isn't it. But it's interesting to see the width of the street to handle horse traffic, carts, and other modes of transportation.

We will be back next Sunday with another posting. If you have a photo you wish to submit for posting, e-mail the editor, Jim Powers, at james.powers@patch.com.
