“My grandparents had a party line at their farm with their own special ring.”

Grandpa W. Number 903R1. Two longs and a short.

Grandpa B. Number 927J2. Three shorts.

What were the longs and shorts?

[Mogger]

We didn't have a phone, running water or electricity until I was 7.

Then 2 lines were strung into our town through over 5 miles of woods so there were 2, 12 party lines.

We were one long and two short.
