Today is a day for thought. While surveying in the Yukon we often come across
old log cabins that had been abandoned decades earlier. Most often they had collapsed but
s few were habitable. One of those we lived in for a time. Dr. Aho’s book speculates
on the contents. Remember the buildings were small, maybe the size of your living room
or our garage. What was considered necessary? The answer startled me.
Our cabin had the luxury of a linoleum floor. 1962. What else would]
have been there in 1930? 1920?
What colour is my nightshirt?
Answer coming … tonight
