22 Years Ago Today...
Feb. 6th, 2006 11:21 am...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.
