Sam-saturday--Something About Me

SAM Saturday challenge by Hive account@bluemoon is a wonderful way for all of us to get to know a little more about each other.

When my kids were growing up we owned a summer cabin in the Chequamegon National Forest on the Mondeaux Flowage in Wisconsin.

Like most summer cottages at the time it was never intended for winter use and what little primitive plumbing it had needed to to be drained and winterized before winter came, so going to the cabin in the winter presented a few challenges!

There was an artisan well that provided year round running water, but it meant hauling water in a bucket for use in the kitchen, and the bathroom option in the winter was the old outhouse down the little path in the woods.

Using the outhouse wasn't as scary to me as bumping into a bear was. That happened one time. The poor bear may have been more scared than I was and we both ran really fast in opposite directions.

Keeping warm was easy enough as long as we kept the fire built up in the woodburning stove.

We brought our snowblower along and used it to make a skating rink out on the lake for the kids, but even with the mosquitoes, we all enjoyed going to the cabin more in the summertime!

We sold the cabin in the late 90's when the kids got busy with summer jobs and months would pass with no time to even go up to mow the grass. I miss it, but I don't miss all the maintenance that it required!
