chores?

We see them sort of clean the garage, paint the trash cans, clean the front yard and haul off the trash from it, but I don't remember seeing them do something on a weekly basis.

Wally cleaned the fireplace but that was only to play up to Margie the teenage maid. A few times we see the boys doing the dishes.

A few times Ward told Wally to take out the trash but we never see him do it.

Eddie mopped the kitchen when Beaver and Richard overflowed the washer.

Not many indoor chores when mom is home 24/7 and has nothing else to do since the kids are grown and at school and dad is at work. When I was a kid, us boys did no chores inside other than keep our rooms clean. Mom was home. Everything was outside. That was dad's domain and dad turned it over more and more to us as he could til he became the supervisor.

We see the opening with the lawn being mowed. I assume that was a weekly chore.
