My Grandmother had a Huckster who brought fresh produce to her neighborhood, as well as a butcher and a fellow with canned goods who both had a truck route… and of course a milkman. She also used a gas refrigerator until the mid 70’s. It had a ridiculously small freezer, big enough for two ice cube trays and maybe 3 small blocks of frozen veggies.
Wow. Isn’t that a bygone era.
We had a milk man come around. We had our milk box on the porch and he would put those milk bottles in.
It was nice on a winter morning with the cream on the top of the bottle. Mmmmm, good!
Boy, those were that days.
