Guest guest Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 Well, by the time I was born life was getting a bit easier for my grandmother. She had 2 chest type freezers, which was necessary to store all that meat. a half a cow is a heck of a lot of meat. Can't say that even in my mothers day they used horse and buggys in NM. As I recall mom told me about riding a cow!hahahaha(depression era, I still have some of her ration books...she was 8) They were poor and didn't have what it took to upkeep horses in this dry state. Concerning those with running water and electricity, yep there are lots of people in rural areas who still don't have those kind of comforts. Aren't we lucky ? I am spoiled, I need running water and electricity. Have a great day everyone! > > > > > > Hi everyone~ > > > I was just watching the noon weather and realized how lucky > I > > am.
