and no wonder with a name like that. Here in classy Minnesota, we have a gelato shop named Cow Bella. It is still in business 😉 https://www.cowbellagelato.com/
So much irony as Texans need ice cream way more than Minnesota folk.
Oh, my gosh, that looks delicious. We DO need that. I literally just returned from the grocery store, wearing a T-shirt, cut off shorts, and velcro Polo sandals. It’s already too hot to water the yard. But another cold front tonight, maybe dipping to 59! Are you already wearing sweaters?
59? That’s brutal for Texas, yes? You betcha (I don’t really say that 😉 ) I’ve taken out my sweaters and the shorts have been put away until next summer. I am always sad when summer goes away and winter takes its place. (rare to have the month-long fall we’ve had–usually just rains the leaves of the trees for a week or so, then snow) Will need your humor to get me through, friend Kerbey.
Is that one of those mini-juke boxes like they used to have in each booth at old time diners? Never saw one outdoors like that. Oh by the way, it’s a high oh 82 and low of 73 just like usual.
This picture just makes me smile. I was and am a city boy but I have spent some time in the country. Tastee Freeze was more than an ice cream shop. It was a center of activity for teenagers. A hangout. A place to eat and drink and exchange gossip. Thanks for the memory and the smiles.
That dude is giving the photog a stink eye but still managing to wolf the whole cone. Damsel, meanwhile, likes photog better than cone-wolfer. Ah, the drama at the cream stand, Kerbey.
Classic! Our local Cup-n-Cone closes for the season today. Oh sadness. http://www.cupandconewbl.com/

We don’t have those OR Tastee Freezes. 😦 I just prefer Baskin Robbins. We did have a Chunky Cow, but it went out of business.

Nope – Alpha Japanese Female = AJF. It’s a tough job but someone has to do it.

You asked for “next line please.” Benson gave me an idea: “Where teens can go to shoot the breeze.”

I meant the next line to the John Cougar song: “Diane’s sitting on Jackie’s lap…” But yours is good, too.
