Yes, at times a Safe Sanctuary is a good spot. For a teenager, maybe no. Lovely post.

This is a wonderful post. I've been in the area a couple of times so I could really picture everything you were talking about.

Sadly Pat I think if one is well off one can put up with most things. Young people do not realize maybe how really poor the average person was. I expect Mum was just relieved to have a place , not ideal for young folk perhaps, but who could choose, not many in those days.

When I was a kid, I don't believe I would've liked an off the grid place. Now at 33, like you, I think that it wouldn't be so bad with the world we live in.
