Yup. Livin' the dream in the same spot since 1956.

A one-season cottage we use three seasons a year.

Dishwasher is OneofUs, Clothes dryer is solar. A/C is two Window-Shakers (used just two days this year). Heat is by woodstove, firewood supplied by abutting wood lot—provided by electric chainsaw and "Armstrong" labor. Doesn't everybody plug a Lincoln welder into their kitchen outlet?

Dave Smith Electric of Wolfeboro converted us to a 100 amp panel last Fall. Rewired the water heater, range, and some "custom wiring" I'd done years ago. We should do an upgrade every 60 years or so.

Town moved a lot of utility poles around (again). A lot of ugly gray PVC pipe now stretches across one side of the house.

What am I going to do with two big jars of 20-amp fuses?
