Good Morning everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready.  We still have people in part of the state without power from the storms on Friday night. In a couple communities so many trees fell on homes and power lines it is going to be a while before all the power is restored. One home in one of the rural towns had 6 trees fall on it! No one was hurt, but the house was badly damaged. It is raining here today and expected to continue all day. We have flood watches in effect.  Hope you all have a good Monday!  Gerry

Good Monday morning. I loved going to my Great Aunt Berniece's house. No electricity or running water. She had a giant - to me! - wood stove in the kitchen where she did all her cooking. I remember helping her use a wooden churn to make butter and loved to play with her old crank-up Victrola to play records. There was also an outhouse down a path which always seemed to have wasps buzzing around it. Her father, my Irish great grandpa, lived with her. He once told me to remember "It's Orange Irish ya are, lassie." I loved going there.

Good Monday morning everyone. What neat memories from everyone. I loved visiting my grand parents home in New York. They had electricity, running water and a coal furnace for heating. I remember their house being "huge" as a youngster especially the basement (for the coal and furnace) and attic with all sorts of neat items which I explored whenever I got loose. And then I returned some 50+ years later for a family funeral only to discover their home was actually very small! But I still firmly hold on to my childhood memories! Time for a cup of WADDB and bagel. Have a great day everyone

Good morning all.
Yet another lovely day, though it's going to get hot later on. I think I'll drive up the coast road to Comox and do some Costco shopping.
John and I did rustic for the first few years of our life together and in our travels ended up staying in many a nasty and dirty old cabin with no plumbing or electricity. The last straw was the one that had a huge hole in the floor. After that I put my foot down and we graduated to dicey-looking motels.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.
