Could you imagine having to travel at the speed of a stagecoach these days? Wiki: The stagecoach traveled at average speeds between four and seven miles per hour with the total daily mileage covered anywhere from 70 to up to 120 miles. And hour trip by today's standard to grandma's would literally take all day.

ReplyDeleteI know. It would be horrible. Never mind traveling really long distances. It would take forever!
DeleteStuff like that always cracks me up!! I'm sure stuff we're saying now will make future people laugh.
ReplyDeleteNo doubt about that! I think it's best NOT to say anything about the future. You just never know how things will turn out.
DeleteThat was good for a smile. :) The concept was probably so far-fetched at the time that it was unimaginable and impossible!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely. Years from now, some of our things will seem so primitive!
DeleteAll I can feel is the BUMPS! from those wooden and steel wheels and not to mention being always DOWNWIND from the horses!! lol
ReplyDeleteHa ha...the DOWNWIND is something none of us would appreciate!
