This place is such an event in our family. Summer is surely now here for good because King Cone opens today!!! Absolute excitement. We endure winter for this day. It's gonna be a good day!
Some of you local readers (ha, people read this!?!) may be wondering, will the Sherf family go to the *new* location in Plover? Yes, of course we will. There are many similarities between them, beyond simply the name. The ice cream is the same delicious Cedar Crest (I was saddened to find out that Cedar Crest, of Manitowoc, WI does not offer plant tours! What a bummer!) ice cream, but this year, with 8 new flavors MADE LOCALLY AT KING CONE! There is also the lovely view of a King Lube oil change building across from both locations. It's a little eerie folks! Same great manager, who works hard to make sure that the Sherf favs are always in the freezers. Yes, expansion is good.
And with the opening of King Cone, I have a new season goal. My goal is to introduce 10 new people to the delights of KC this summer. Already got one. Two more are planned. Last year I tried to eat my way through the menu, but Zanibar Chocolate with After Dinner Mint is just such a comfort to me... I didn't make it to everything! If you've never been, let me know and we'll plan an outing. It's really just what everyone needs - always. It's that simple.
Oh, and I also hope to write more on this thing... My now is full of stuff (like most of yours' are too!). May will bring one of my best friends for a month-long visit, so I will be writing about the Grand Canyon, the Apostle Islands and general shenanigans with Fabian!
What are your spring highlights? What events mark the beginning of summer for you and your family?
