... the milkman had a horse-drawn cart. The milkman (when I was a
kid in WV) ran up and down the steps to the houses, while the horse
sauntered along keeping _exact_ pace with need for a refill.


Forgot to mention... this really happened...

My family knew the milkman and his wife quite well, and often attended
Christmas parties, etc, at their house.

At one of the Christmas parties the milkman announced he was divorcing
his wife and marrying a woman on his milk route ;-)

Would the milkman only come err.. deliver.. on weekdays?


I don't remember now what the schedule was... I'm talking 55 years
ago.

I'm sure he only made certain "inside deliveries" per a schedule ;-)

Well, sure, he'd have to have a schedule. He'd only have so much milk,
after all.
