Recently I came across pictures of our neighborhood in 1915- 1918. Our neighbor has been restoring his house by these photos down to the light fixtures, he opted for no doorbell due to lack of evidence of one in the 1915 picture. It is cool to be living in such history, not so cool now that we re-insulated though, now it is toasty. I like the entire idea of the victory garden than and now, the potato fields in these pictures is probably way more than a victory garden, in Alaska at that time it was a "don't get scurvy garden." Seth and I have played with the idea of making the whole front yard a garden but with the idea of moving always lurking on the horizon we just hid veggies in the flower beds. The picture of the sod hut is the first residence in Government hill, while I bet that guy smelled bad his "house" was awesome.
If any of you readers chance this posting and need a cat from June 28- August 6th just speak up, she is really just lovely, really smart, high I.Q I imagine, testing is yet inconclusive.
