Same with my Grandparents! My grandfather always said, the highlight of his life, was when electricity came by the farm.I got this lesson the first time I went South to my Mother's Mothers place in rural North Carolina as a kid. When you have to empty slop jowals in the outhouse, pump water by hand and do a hundred other things you never did before just to survive... you gain a little appreciation as to how hard things can be. They didn't get electricity until the late 50's. Rugged. I mean dirt road rugged.
