July 15, 2020 Thirty minutes after leaving the Milkhouse Creamery, we arrived at Lands at Hillside Farms. It is a non-profit foundation of local community folks who are working to keep farming alive. They have training, educational, and retail areas. It is on a large acreage. The store is quaint….

July 15, 2020 The Milkhouse Creamery was a wonderful Second Breakfast! The small shop is adorable! The atmosphere is cozy and the employees are hospitable. Along with a glass bottle of their delicious chocolate milk, Gregg had a scoop of Fluffernutter Banana and I had a scoop of teaberry. Both…

July 14, 2020 Yes, we are obsessed! We are moooo-ving up the road to begin more of the ice cream trail tomorrow! Our first stop is four hours from our PA house, so we decided to get a jump start tonight. We’d hate to miss ice cream for second-breakfast. (wink)…

July 11, 2020 As we headed home on our 2.5-hour drive, we passed many barns with cows in their stalls, being milked. Thank you, ladies! The scenery was beautiful and serene, mountains and valleys, farms, barns, animals, crops, and fields of varying colors. The sun set around 8:45 behind the…

July 11, 2020 Our last stop of the day was about 6 minutes away, not even enough time to begin composing a post. Stock’s is a walk-up window stand that sells some food, frozen ice, soft serve, and scooped ice cream. Because of COVID, it was difficult to see their…

July 11, 2020 Over the river and through the woods to Widnoon Soft Serve we go…. We drove an hour and 15 minutes to the Village of Widnoon, outside of Templeton, PA. Templeton is an old town on a hill which has “Company” row houses overlooking a huge power station…

July 11, 2020 Returning back through the tunnel and over the Pittsburgh bridges we got a better view of the city. If we were to ever decide to move to a city, Pittsburgh would definitely be on my short list. As we passed Heinez Field, we could see Mr. Rogers’…

July 11, 2020 After our Costco stop, where NO ice cream was eaten, we drove past downtown Pittsburgh, drove through the Ft. Pitt Tunnel, and up to quaint Mt. Lebanon. It was raining so, after parking along the street a block away from our destination, we donned our rain jackets…

July 11, 2020 We arrived at Kerber’s at 10:30 a.m. They are another small convenience store with an adjacent putt putt golf course and inner tube water slide. They sell half gallon tubs of their ice cream (Jackson Farms sold half gallon and gallon tubs) as well as selling soft…
