What a colorful neighborhood!

When we moved into our first new home , in 1952, We had neighbors living within our one block area that had the names of Green, Black, White, Brown and Blue. We wished for a Gray but never got one!



We lived there for quite some time before any of the so named people moved away. We had Greens living directly across the street from us; we had Blues living right next door to us on one side; we had Browns living on the other side right next door; we had Whites living directly behind us and we had Blacks living two doors down from us.



I think that is quite a record for colorful names in a one block area. Too bad our name, Ford, could not have been a color. Maybe I will look for car names the next time I move!
