 Dairy Dock is open...all is right with the world

Posted in Vermilion (RSS)

Every fall with the cool air of autumn sweet tooth enthusiasts get a feeling of emptiness when Vermilion's long time Ice Cream hotspot, Romp's Dairy Dock, closes for the onset of winter. Kids go back to school, life seemingly shifts it's focus from boating, warm weather, sunny days on the beach, and a Dairy Dock ice cream cone in the shade, to a period of waiting, and wanting. Oh the wanting.

Today the waiting is over. With Spring comes a sense of renewal and also a chance to get your brain freeze on. Whether it's orange, vanilla, chocolate or a swirl combination with nuts (or other toppings), the thought of a sugar fix on a April afternoon watching the Vermilion River roll by is a part of the fabric of living in Vermilion. Soon little leaguers will start to appear in mass, then bike riders, boaters, soccer moms, baseball dads and all will be right with this small piece of the world.

Don't let todays soggy start stop you from what's important in life, PEACE.. LOVE... AND ICE CREAM!
