Lemme tell ya sonny... We had ta walk ta school thru 12 foot snow drifts and it was up hill both to and frum our one room school with a coal stove!!! We had to bring all the coal from our Christmas stockings just ta keep warm!!!

You kids nowa days don't hafta do nuthin ta keep warm!!!

Had to burn the spelling books to just keep warm huh? You had Christmas stocking you must of been rich. We had to go into the neighbors pasture go get dried cow patties aka cow chips for our fire didn't have a stove just that fire out here on the lone prairie. Had a dog once we ended up eatin him one year called him lucky he only had one eye and one nut though.

Sure wish we'd been as rich as you were Spanky. Sure miss that old dog too
