Why am I so nostalgic this week?
A tune.
Dee da deeda dee dee da da
Dee da dee da dee da.
For the first time since we've lived in this neighborhood, an ice cream truck has come to our cul de sac. The ice cream truck! Nostalgia on wheels. And one seems to have actually ventured out into the land of the perfect lawn and found us.
The first time, I thought I was hearing things. That insidious melody had to be wishful thinking but then I saw it! The tell-tale white truck with the garrish and gaudy pictures of the most delectable treats plastered over the side. And then, I thought it was a fluke. But it returned the next day and the next. The truck has found a hidden nest of children and will not forget us again.
Oh, the ice cream truck! Summer is definitely here.

ReplyDeleteMe Want Ice Cream! We had a Good Humor man who delivered to our street. WE LOVED HIM!!! He was like APL's ice cream man-credit? No problem.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was the ice cream cone with a frozen gumball in the bottom. Sigh.
ReplyDeletegetting to be too cold for icecream here, but I can dream.
ReplyDeleteWhat tune do your ice cream trucks play?
