I think how TOUGH everyone was back just before WW2 in rural America. My MIL says she never wanted to go camping because she was camping for the first 18 years of her life. Farm life was tough. My wife's grandparents raised 5 kids through the great depression & the dust bowl years on a farm in Oklahoma. In the winter if you woke up and wanted a drink of water you had to get the fire in the stove fired up to thaw the water pitcher in the kitchen. There was frost on the beds. In the summer if it was 110 outside it was like your attic in summer in the house. No fans since there was no electricity. The bathroom was 14 steps out the back door. Yea, those were tough people to survive just day to day.
