Uphill. In the Snow. In Bare Feet. Both Ways.

Then I had to milk the cows and render the pigs.

Shovel The Coal.

Stoke the Fire.

Help with the Foaling.

Then, and only then...

A Hearty Breakfast!

One spoonful of thin gruel.

Cheers!

Uphill. In the Snow. In Bare Feet. Both Ways.

On icy days we had to wrap our bare feet in barbed wire for traction.

Then I had to milk the cows and render the pigs.
