Old Money

Hug calls the part of town where I live "old money" Villeville. I think he means that if you live here, you have money, but some of the stuff you own got old because you have been rich for so long.

One guy has a shed with a caved in roof. You might think this is a bad thing. But when I passed it one snowy day all the snow had come off and there was still snow on the brand new roofs.

Just because something is broken, doesn't mean it can't be useful. Like Mr. Huggins. When he tells me to stay away from something it's usually because he got hurt by it. He's like a caved in roof with no snow.
