Only thing good...

That little one room shack outback.

I've been so blessed to be old enough to know of such things.Back in the day that little shack was what you could call a modern convenience.

I have took baths in old round aluminum tubs heated by water warmed up on the stove.

Watched as water was drawned from the well.That cool almost ice cold water.

Lived in houses heated by a fireplace.Stepped on many a hot coal when barefooted.That's why I'm not thrilled by fireplaces in these modern homes.But I have to admit they are relaxing almost hypnotizing to watch and the crackling of the burning wood and that wonderful aroma of wood smoke.

The good old days they are called.

Maybe the only thing good about those days is that they are over.
