I don't miss much of the things back in New England. Although in our town of Sterling there are at least 3 roadside ice cream stands including
Rota Springs Farm,
Sterling Ice Cream Bar and Meolas.

Even in the neighboring towns there seems to be many roadside Ice Cream stands such as Pinecroft Dairy in Holden and Kimball Farms in Lancaster. Back home they seem to be everywhere!
I tried to find one out here in California, nada! Yeah, you have the Baskin Robbins, the Yogurt chains, etc. All brand new and in strip malls or shopping plazas. No roadside ice cream! I miss the ice cream!
After thinking about all the ice cream, Elly said we needed to go for a walk. Our "daily" walk is a 2 mile loop around the Bear Creek Community. It is interesting to see the large houses and all the pretty flowers and landscaping. Roses seem to be everywhere and are in bloom from now until November. Here are a few picture that I took on today's walk
