“My Mom’s aunt lived in Idaho on a ranch. We would spend weeks there in the summer. Between the mean old rooster and the scary old ram, we ran for our lives across the pasture to get to my Mom’s cousin’s house. Fun memories.

My mom’s sister lived on a farm in Idaho. No indoor toilet. We would have to go to the outhouse and those blankety blank! Hogs would be chasing us. I didn’t want to get eaten by a Hog. Talk about scared.

Sounds like we shared similar fun times down on the farm/ranch.

No indoor plumbing at my great-aunts either.

No electricity either, cooked on a wood stove and had kerosene lamps.

She had a small ice box to keep a few things cold, ice man made deliveries.

My kids would laugh when I called the frig the ice box.

They don’t know what they missed.
