LOL This aint roughing it buddy. When I was a kid I had to carry a bucket to the spring, fill it up and carry it back to the house for drinking/cooking water. Took my baths in the river until the water got too cold. Then it was stand in a big old washing tub like this after I got too big to be able to sit in it ![Wink](https://www.hdforums.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Still had to heat the water on the wood stove for baths

Evening Markus. Sounds delicious.
I'll be making mac and cheese au gratin with sliced steaks. Of coarse, with a bit of heat.

I guess so, but we didn't think of it that way at the time. It was just what we did. 4 room shack on up on a slate bank above the river. We did have electricity though!

Geez, Tracy...I got no right to bitch about my upbringing...not that I do. Military housing was no where near that bad, and it was bad!

I ain't complaining Marcus. I spent some of the best times of my life in that old shack. I had the river below to fish and swim and the hills to hunt and trap above. What more could a hillbilly boy need?
Well besides a hillbilly gal or two of course

Roughing it in todays world. Life back in the day. Simpler is not always the worst way either. Some days I wonder...
