Ice Cream Evening
Aug. 2nd, 2022 10:15 pmThis evening after supper, Darwin and I decided to go for ice cream. Because we could.
The closest ice cream place to us is Go Ice Cream. It's a retro ice cream parlor, complete with counter and stools inside and spindly metal chairs outside. All the ice cream is made on site--the kitchen and its shiny equipment are visible through plate glass windows--and the selections rotate every week.
It's freakin' fantastic. The best ice cream I've ever had, anywhere.
Darwin and I took a pleasant 10-minute drive to downtown, where we easily found parking, and we strolled to Go Ice Cream. The summer air was soft, and other people were wandering about. The ice cream parlor is down an alley strung with lights, giving both a modern and a retro feel. I ordered Banana Brulee and Darwin got Three Bean Vanilla. We settled on a bench outside, enjoying the weather, the retro view, the ice cream, and each other's company. When we were done, we decided to buy a pint and a pair of GIC's huge ice cream sandwiches. It was a fine mini-date.
This is what I love about summer.
