As very young boy. My mother, sister and I lived with my grandpa and aunt while my dad was at Eniwetok during the big tests.

The house had a well for water, a real cast iron coal stove for heat and other stuff, and REA electricity (thankfully). My first baths were in a big galvanized tub with water heated on the iron stove or that new fangled electric stovetop.

There was also that damned scary outhouse.
