So many mornings it was freezing in the Atlantic City area. We had the oil heat grate in the hallway. It was so toasty dressing over that. When the power went out, Mom would light the gas stove and we would huddle wrapped in blankets in the kitchen. Fortunately, there were only 3 of us - it was a very tiny kitchen. Now, everything is electric. When we get a hurricaine and the power goes out - at least it is warm. Candles are great when you don't have a generator. Hope all had a merry christmas. I enjoyed my time off - rested, visited, etc. Have a very Happy New Year. -----Original Message----- From: Up2Nutrix@aol.com [mailto:Up2Nutrix@aol.com] Sent: Saturday, December 21, 2002 11:23 PM To: NJ-MEMORIES-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [NJ-Memories] Re: FLoor Vents In a message dated 12/21/2002 9:02:00 AM Mountain Standard Time, NJ-MEMORIES-D-request@rootsweb.com writes: > I can remember getting up in the morning and dressing over the floor vent > where it was warm. I'd drape my clothes over the radiator in my bedroom until they were warm, and then I'd put them on.
