Isn’t electricity a wonderful thing? Now that the dark ages are behind us again, it is important that we remember the many things we take for granted…heat, light, water, television, clean laundry…So, what was it we did before cell phones? Do you remember stopping at service stations and using payphones? It seems that someone had always removed the pages from the phone book. Do you remember checking to see if there was change in the coin return? Right…no such luck. I know that everyone has heard about the “good old days” from parents and grandparents. After eight days without modern conveniences, I have come to believe that the best is yet to come. It was nice, however, to be close with family. There were ten of us in my mother’s den which had gas logs. We played cards, read books, and talked to each other. Maybe there is something to be learned from this that will improve our lives today. I would love to hear about your ice storm experiences. I would bet that there are some great stories out there. So how did you survive?
