I am also older than dirt. I remember all but the milk bottles. We never could afford milk delivered. We got commodities with the powder milk and eggs and canned peanut butter. I remember my mother breaking her arm with the wringer of the the washer it just grabbed her and boy did she cuss a blue streak. I remember we were taught to repect all elders and knew better than to tell them our opinion when they were 'discussing" politics or what ever. We had an outside toilet until I was 7 and I felt rich when me moved to a house with gas heat not a coal stove and a water heater and public water. We appreiciate all our conveiniences when we reminisce of the olden times.
Thanks for the trip back in time.
