We also had lanterns and candles and shit, because the power was just that unstable and unreliable. 90% of the time we were ruffing it like the Amish; pumping our own water, shitting in the woods, the works. At one point we lost power for an entire year because of some sort of tragedy I can't remember the details of, and after nagging him that entire time, finally my step-father was like "fuck this shit, we're getting a generator". That was ~7-10 years worth of my child hood. 😅 The fucking bees & snakes and shit too. (⁠⊙⁠_⁠◎⁠) Just that dirt poor deep country side experience.
