Any Monday--An Irvington Tradition

Local historian, Larry Muncie, who also happens to be a bit of an artist, sent in this beautiful photograph of his mother, Margaret Muncie.  He titled the photo, "Any Monday" as many Irvington moms spent that day as "wash" day.  In this photo, Mrs. Muncie hangs clothes to dry in the backyard of the family bungalow at 5831 Beechwood Avenue. (c1955)  It looks like it might have been a spring day as well.  How many other Irvington mothers were doing the same thing on this gorgeous day?
