Summer days seemed endless as a kid, didn’t they? I spent many of those days with friends, biking around the neighborhood, exploring the woods, and wading in the cool water of nearby creeks. The only thing better than chasing after the ice cream truck was my parents piling us into the car for a trip to our neighborhood ice cream shop. Today, ice cream brings up memories of those carefree summers, and a visit to this ice cream shop in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, might take you on a stroll down Memory Lane, too.
