I'd be kidding you if I said the ice business is
problem-free (no endeavor is), but I can say that
we have always been able to overcome any obstacles.
Furthermore, we've found the rewards of our efforts to be
well worth the troubles we occasionally face.
Running a rural ice service is, after all, clean,
satisfying outdoor work. If you decide to try it, you'll be
selling a good, useful product that—in nearly any
community—is increasingly in demand. You'll also
often be able to keep as cool as you like during a season
when everyone else is complaining of the heat . . . and,
whether you choose to work part or full time, you'll have a
good chance of making a very comfortable living.
In other words, when it comes to turning a long hot summer
into cold hard cash, there's no business like the ice
business!

nonrefrigerated icehouse in MOTHER NOS. 17 (page 20) and 19
