Park Street Ice Cream

You are really taking us back to the good old days and that yummy creamy ice cream.
You had to stand in really long lines at Park Street but it was worth the wait.
When I was very young the school took us on a field trip to the Avalon Dairy. I believe they made their ice cream from Jersey milk, which gave it that wonderful creamy taste. I have an old Avalon glass bottle sitting in my kitchen as we speak.
Yep...I remember we would ride our bikes past Middletown Ice & Coal looking for those trucks from the South that were filled with the first watermelons of summer and then go home to pester our parents to buy one. We also bought watermelons from the little fruit stand on Main Steet across from A & W. Did you ever have any block parties in your neighborhood? Those were the best!
