Saturday, 7 April 1962, The Frances Hubbard Diaries
Rainy, we washed and hung clothes upstairs. Jim, David, and Wayne went to Windham in am. Gerald went to work. Marilyn, Carol, Sue and I went to a business meeting at church at night. Marilyn cut the girls' hair.
Comment: I think I was hauling wholesale milk out of Prospect Dairies in Stamford for Joe Gallo. I delivered crated milk to about six or so creameries along the east side of the Hudson down route 9 to Poughkeepsie, Wappingers Fall, Fishkill and Peekskill. Ten to 12 hours and I got $25 a trip. Drove a 1959 Ford F900 tractor with 40' reefer...had to handle every damn carton and crate....not bad money for back then..would be about $214 per day today....my truck was green.....
