[Old School Hound]

Something from the "old" days that I missed so much I reinstated it, is the clothes line.  There is no fabric softener anywhere on earth that can make bed sheets smell as good as drying them outside.  I sill have clothes pins that my mom used.

I never liked Vienna sausage but my dad LOVED them, and he would eat them with crackers and mustard.  He also snacked on pickled pigs feet with crackers.  Yuk!!!

As far as the outhouse is concerned, I was 13 before we got indoor plumbing.  We had running water but no tub or toilet.  I took my baths behind the Warm Morning in a #4 wash tub. 

Cas Walker is a wonderful memory.  LOL  I remember when a woman got her purse stolen in his parking lot and he went on TV.  He was fighting mad and told whoever it was that he had hired men "to beat the hell out of him" if he ever did it again.  He also talked pretty rough to someone who had stolen his coon dog.  Said he knew who it was and the dirty SOB had 2 days to return the dog or he'd call his name out on TV.  LOL

My mom and granny both dried clothes out on the clothes line. We had clothes pins all over the house. I had a favorite game I played with my sis--- see how many clothes pins I could drop in a glass milk bottle. Yes, milk came in bottles. The "milkman" would deliver milk to us in those glass milk bottles and leave them on the porch. 

My mom watched Cas Walker every morning. I would wake up every morning to the sound of that old crusty curmudgeon's voice. His wife had one of those big bouffant hairdos. We got his show out of WBIR in Knoxville.  Cas was a treasure !



Granny,  check out my man, Cas . He didn't like thieves.  LOL
