I never knew that we had so much in common. Thank you for sharing information about your father who worked locally in the dairy business. Wade’s Dairy is a survivor of a bygone era, the last of the Mohican’s (so to speak). There were close to 1,000 dairies in Ct at one time many decades ago. There are only a handful left today. We were a processing dairy plant up until 1987 when we shut down and morphed into a dairy distributor, but still retained our historical name of Wade’s Dairy in honor of the three previous generations of Wades that provided fresh milk to their customers (neighbors). The nostalgia of home delivery has always been relevant to me, hence the collection of milk bottles in my office. It’s been amazing to see how many people are now drawn to the past, bringing back the milkman (home delivery) and drive in movies. A simpler time and a better quality of life (in my opinion).
Great, inspirational example for other small businesses trying to plot a survival course in these chaotic times… You provided an example of the nimble adaptability that the rest us need to follow in order to survive the economic craziness that we’ll be forced to navigate for the foreseeable future.
To borrow (in context, and I believe appropriately, from the performing arts): Bravo! Break-a-leg!, Doug.

Again. What restaurants did you personally see serving alcohol? Name names.
What members of the BPD saw this happening and did nothing?
These are serious problems. Name names.
They’re all essential workers.
Wade’s Dairy serves nutrition, joy, happiness and protein to those who ask for it.
Under these circumstances people might stand in line to get their stuff but not today when you can survey the milkman’s offerings, pick your favorites and await delivery.

Here is one of the last of the Mohican’s in Bridgeport.

And pray tell what are the well known connected restaurants/ bars involved?
Take a drive, old-timer… Take a nap, refresh yourself, and take a drive…
Just trying to start a rumor. If you got something to say then say it. Too busy to play silly games.
Or maybe Jeff is referring to Eneida Martinez partnership in the Keystone. Tell us what you saw there
The Cream Always Rises To The Top! Thank God your father wasn’t Bolivian! He done good!
