    Great!
    It excites all the senses…
    loaded with tension and the hopes of rewards.

    —STEPHEN AMOR

    Ah, the tune of the ice cream truck once the single most iconic sound and sight of Summer! Once all our bases were loaded with a regular treat to or from school to cool us down.

    working the ice cream
    we walk all the way back
    to yesterday
