What if it Snows?

You recognized?? Old stops had a sign; Name and brands... Then like Truck Ice. Block and Blown. Then they had this little 10' square dock in front the ice house, the blower sitting on it. You got to back up; open and get "coated', or aim head in at an angle, cut hard right, stop, then jack the LH trailer nose up close to get the blocks thrown in. That is when you filled the little tank on the B & S putt putt while you could reach...

Oh yeah. I recognized it. I even remember going to the ice house after getting a load of sweet corn.

Completely agree.
