No, that's about right for the 60's, as I recall it. I lived in the western part of the city i.e. Westgate, Killarney, Rosscarock.

Other things that come to mind:

1. Being on a first name basis with the paperboy, mailman and milkman.

2. Larger lots and spaces between houses.

3. Small neighbourhood hardware stores e.g. Larry's Hardware at the corner of Old Banff Coach Rd. (Bow Trail) and 45th Street SW.

4. Letting the dog run loose (unleashed) to play with the kids.
