This picture reminds me of my Mother doing wash in the winter time. I sure a lot of guys my age had moms that did the same thing. She would bring our work jeans into the kitchen and stand them by the wood stove until they thawed out.

Later she got a modern washer and dryer in the house but she continued to use the wringer washer in the egg cellar of our large chicken house. My parents really worked hard.

 

Abe,
We don't have to worry about that our here in the desert. Thank Goodness!!!!

 

I thought she just put a bit too much starch in his underwear.

 

 

A recently closed restaurant chain had this one out front...

 

 

1902 Sterand Loco - Powered by a 4-cylinder 40-hp Rutenber gasoline engine

 

Thanks for posting, I'd make an offer on this '59 F 250 immediately, if was local! 19.5" solid wheels are the clincher! Trucks like this usually have low miles to boot.

 

Gee, I wonder why that restaurant closed? That scared away customers. LOL
