Twain Harte Chalet







We rented a cute cabin just a few miles away from Dodge Ridge. It snowed so much, the power to several towns went out for three days. Of course, it included most of the time we were there. Thank goodness for gas stoves and wood burning fire places. We felt like we were camping. We boiled water to filled up tubs to wash dishes and bathe dirty bodies. We baked pie in the stove and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows over the fire. We kept a pot of warm wassail on the stove after our snowy adventures to keep warm. Stories were told and books were read by lantern light late in the evenings.
