When my Dad was shot on MD's Eastern Shore, he was put back in ICU after he was operated on 'cause the Recovery Room was closed on weekends.

Sounds like the PD around here. Better hope you don't need them now, 'cos they might take three hours to get there.

Tough bunch, those Canadians

Only the tough survived back in my day. The weak ones froze in the winter. Nowadays kids are spoiled rotten with their heating and all that.

I can see we are talking about two different things...but the name hydro confused things.

Our electric company is called Manitoba hydro. I'm assuming hydro because some of the electric power is produced from water plants up north. I'm talking about a telephone pole...or a large pole they hook your electric power up to in rural areas. It was once a large tree.

Our water comes from our well in the ground.

Ah that makes more sense. But our poles are not green lol

Did you walk up hill both ways too?

Lol lol didn't we all ?

I didn't even have a stick. Or a string.

Your poor thing

I had a skate key and cardboard boxes. Oh and a hammer

Sounds dangerous!

It would tighten the skate to your shoe. Holding it in place. I used to make scooters out of the skates with a 2/4 and orange crate box. That took the hammer of my dads

Omg I never knew you had to have a key for those! I had some my mom got at a garage sale and told me I had to grow into them! I never did get to try them out!

We had concrete sidewalks. However they were quite a challenge skating they were so cracked up from tree roots.

Same here. Probably good thing I didn't get to try the skates!
