Couple of weird memmories

When we lived in SF I remember the garbage man coming around with a large canvas tarp... he would spread it on the ground, gather the garbage cans and dump their content on the tarp.  When he had it full he would gather up the 4 corners, throw it over his shoulder and take it to his garbage truck and dump it.  Now...to really age myself, I also remember a man coming around selling vegetables out of a cart pulled by a horse!!!   (where is that guy now?  I'd love to buy fresh veges right at my door)

Wow! I think they should have paid trashmen a LOT more back then!! Wouldn't it be nice to have fresh veggies being sold in the neighborhood? Or even milk and cheese, like we had in RP years and years ago??
