Here in New Hampshire we had 25 inches of snow last Wednesday, and my husband still went to work and I drove to the post office. However, I do dread the darkness at 4PM in December, not seeing my neighbors for days and weeks, and the fear of slipping on the ice (now that I am a certain age!). I have helped out with local re-enactments and at Plimoth Plantation enough to know that if I lived in 1635 New England I would probably be the first one to die as soon as it turned November... if I didn't catch dysentery sooner!Heather Wilkinson Rojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704949156266722016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5010833764662588392.post-59432948980957669572011-01-18T14:42:23.849-08:002011-01-18T14:42:23.849-08:00Reading this reminded me of when I lived in a draf...Reading this reminded me of when I lived in a drafty triple-decker in Somerville, Massachusetts - I remember the freezing pipes, sleeping in Dr. Dentons (as an adult!) since they are the warmest PJs, and never, ever being really warm in the winter. We are now grateful for our fireplace and heating system in (relatively) warm VA!Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.com
