My grandmother lived on a farm and I hated the outhouse!Loved the creek,though.You had a much rougher time than I did and we were hit hard by the depression.

My Dad just picked himself up,adjusted,worked where he could and finally we were out of the woods by the time the war was over.I am small town,very small town and have lived in the city all my adult life.

I've lived mostly in town since the war. My grandparents on both sides remained on the farms and I spent summers with them. I love the country life. The depression was especially hard in the deep South. To make matters worse for us was that my father was a school teacher and they didn't make squat during the depression. We had to live off the land. One of my earliest memories is picking cotton.
