Four seas ice cream

[sandbox]

I happened to catch a PBS show that featured Four Seas over in Centerville. We used to go there as kids. We had a place in Bass River and my cousins lived in Osterville and we would travel between them stopping in Barnstable and the Village of Centerville for Ice cream. It became a tourist trap when Jack became president because Jackie continued to frequent the place. Before that event she and any number of the Compound folks would come and go without much notice.

They had the best ice cream and probably still do, they make it every morning from scratch.

I've only been to Cape Cod once in my life for less than a day but I think I've been to this place!  Weird!

Route 28 is a old Indian Path and now a main two lane, in many places, road on the Cape. It winds though many nooks & crannies villages along the south central shoreline. Its very odd how they have left the compartmentalized cities and towns as villages through the centuries. Many of the towns throughout Massachusetts including the State name itself have remained as they were when the Pilgrams landed. As a kid we would go to the Cape for a weekend around thr december holidays and it seemed void of life, except for fisherman. There were areas where the Police and Fire d Dept would close for the winter because no one was around so the County & State would have to cover the areas. In the 60's vacation homes began to emerge and the cape started to populate with City folks and convenient stores, fast food restaurants and traffic signs & signals.

Times sure have changed, but the drive along old rt. 28 is still pretty.  We head down Cape in the fall sometimes when the foliage is pretty, or take the 'Scenic Dinner Train', which is a nice ride.

There are so many ice cream places here nowadays, actually there are at least 4 right here in our little village. They close down in October usually.
Our grandkids know the ones with the homemade stuff, sooooo good.

We are having a very unusual cold and wet summer. Ocean temp according to our local paper is about 10 degrees below usual temp.
And my flower gardens are going wild and crazy, never ever had such huge and colorful blooms on my daylily collections.
We ordinarily would have been kayaking about 30 times by mid July, but only been twice due to the odd weather.
Where is global warming when we want it?
