High Wheel Confectionary
We were all super impressed and had a fun time visiting High Wheel Confectionary in Ironton. The ice cream was delicious with very generous scoops. The soda cellar was wild with some very crazy flavors. I got a bottle of Moxie which I discovered for the first time when we were visiting Maine many years ago. I also got a Goo Goo Cluster which we made when we were in Nashville! There is even a toy store selection upstairs with a lounge.
It was clear that the person that created this store had put a lot of thought and passion into it. Great stop if you are in the area!





Had some good brisket at Hudson Smokehouse for dinner tonight. Mac-n-Cheese was also very good.


Mountain biking on the Galloping Goose trail today.

Summer Challenge: Create a Playdate Experience
This post is part of the Summer Challenge Collection, a collection of tasks or projects for our kids to do over the summer.
This is a very open ended challenge to use the Playdate Pulp web-based game editor to create some kind of experience for the Playdate. This could be a game, something educational, or just silly. There is no complexity requirement but it should have some goal that it is designed for.
We saw The New Standards play tonight outside on the rooftop of the Hewing tonight. They did a good performance as always but while the venue had promise the execution was difficult. There seemed to be more people there than the space could really handle or the bar could serve.
I made it out to the pontoon to get the cover back up, replace a cover pole, and get the ponding water off the cover. Mission successful. There is still a bit over a foot of water above the dock. The boat still is floating and not on the Sea Legs yet.
