...my house burned to the ground.

I was in high school at the time, just beginning a new semester in grade 10. I came home with a typewriter I signed out from school so that I could work on re-writing & editing articles for an edition of the school newspaper, and arrived at the farm to find a black smoking crater where my house used to be.

Undaunted, I set up the typewriter in the barn with my notes and completed the newpaper edition on time that night.

Wow! But February in Canada, it must have been cold. Even in the barn.

What an experience! Outstanding dedication for that age too.
