Living on the Shores of Lake Erie we had Mayflies (Canadian Soldiers) blown over the lake from Canada twice, once in Cleveland and a second in Buffalo while driving. Cleveland episode was a bit scary as I was only a young kid; Buffalo swarm caused us to pull over and wipe the windshield clean of splattered bugs!
Just because some of us oldies don’t need or want new technology doesn’t mean that we can’t do everything we want utilizing Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Picture Manager and our old XP program.
If we sophisticated Americans would just provide disposable slippers for our adult guests all would be fine on our white or silk carpets. For children, I don’t have a recommendation. For our two, we only had oriental rugs in our living room and dining room which were closed off by folding french doors. Rest of the house was wood or tile floors.
