The transportation that Lawrence and I used when we went to High School was much the same, but not until after Dad bought his second car, and made a pickup out of the first one, was an automobile used for transportation to school. Ernie rode horseback also, but by that time milk was being delivered regularly to the ice cream factory, and delivery had to be made early in the morning when Ernie went to School.
The three Metzger boys, taken in 1914. This was Lawrence's and my first store made suit. Mumsie made most of our clothes before this time. Ernie eventually inherited them. I never ask him how he felt about this.
This team of matched grays was typical of the horses Dad raised. It was the first team I ever drove. The lad in the picture is Ernie. Dad started his sons at an early age. We were driving teams in the field as young as eight, and he always worked along beside us with another team.
