BOARD GAMES! HOW JUVENILE! Well, that may be so, but Marjorie and I play about 20 games a week. So farm I have been a winner of most but Marjorie is catching up. When she does, the game will end. Sore loser. The kitchen of the farm house is about 9 degrees…cold. Has been so ever since we moved the wood stove to the scrap yard and converted to central heating. Who can afford central heating? Grandma and Grandpa Freeman lived in this single room all winter…so cold in the rest of the house that there were always icicles and frost on the furniture. They made do…probably played Chinese checkers as well. The checker board is home made.
