Barkeater Lake by Corey Pandolph for June 21, 2020

We had a house in Upstate NY that was on a well, then the town finally ran a water main down our street. Six months later we had an ice storm that knocked out our power for 27 days. If we’d still been on the well we’d have been S-O-L! Kept the house warm with the wood stove, cooked on a Coleman stove, and used oil lamps for light.
