Good Morning Gents- Going to the Outhouse in the winter- Getting a drink (with a ladel) out of the porcalin pail with water in it in the kitchen- Looking down thru the Heat floor registers upstairs at the adults talking in living room- Cutting wood & caring for the big "Potbellied" Stove in the living room- Cutting the large yard with a push reel type mower- Collecting eggs from the chickens- Watching Grandma Twist the heads off the chickens & letting the body chase me around the yard- Opening the door for the "Iceman" bringing the ice block for the "Icebox" Taking a bath as a child in the kitchen sink- Listening to radio stations on my "foxhole" crystal radio- Thanks-Al
