Hey crabbyboater.
I remember an older couple from lakewood Wisconsin that cut lake ice in the winter and stored it in a shed after it was covered with saw dust. He had a two pump gasoline station and he serviced vacationers. It was common to store ice like that. He use to talk about Wayne King, the orchestra leader stopping there alot during the summer. He left an impression on me as a kid. Broken Swedish accent,wire rim glasses, hair creamed and combed back and always coveralls.
