An Old Cold Spot
My brother Mike emailed me this photo last night. He said this was a goodbye salute that he snapped today in his garage where this old freezer has been chugging away since 1988. That was the year our mama decided she was tired of bending over and digging through it. Besides, she no longer needed the capacity and hadn't for several years. Mike and my sister-in-law spent the next 25 years "digging" through this old freezer. My sis-in-law was very good at keeping it and the cupboards stocked. The two of them kept promising each other that "It is going to die soon, so we will just keep it until that day." Twenty-five years may seem like a very long life for a freezer. It is MUCH older than that. Sears only sold Coldspot through 1976. I thought that my parent's purchased this freezer in the sixties. My brother said he put the serial number 'on-line' and it matched a 1953 manufacturing date. Here is a close up of the make and model that

I'm finally seeing LIGHT at the end of one of my tunnels. . .It's amazing the relief I feel from it too!

has such depth...
I always wonder what will be waiting on the other side. I don't think I could turn around just before a tunnel or entrance... I have to see the other side... curiosity.
When I look at that, I can't help but think about how on earth did they ever construct that tunnel? Was anyone killed in the process?
good picture :)
YES I wonder whats on the other side. I'm nosy.
When my brothers were in college and we went to visit them, the exit we turned off on was RIGHT BEFORE a tunnel like that. I never had the opportunity to go THROUGH the tunnel because we never had reason to go past that certain exit. And I ALWAYS wondered what was on the other side.
Well, it turns out, my HUSBAND was on the other side .... literally. The town he grew up in was a few exits past the tunnel.
