It's summertime so it must be Ted Drewes!




We took time out from packing for Vermont and headed down to Ted Drewes in South St. Louis. This St. Louis tradition serves frozen custard in a multitude of ways including concretes. During the summer there are usually a hundred or more people milling around the stand; ordering, talking and kicking back with friends. We met our good friends, the Ereksons, and spent a couple of hours talking while the kids jumped around in the van. Kate, the world's greatest babysitter, will be going to college before we come back in August. What a great way to spend a Monday night!

I miss Ted Drewes so much! They just don't make it the same anywhere else!

That sounds wonderful! Makes me just a touch homesick. What a perfect thing to do on your way out of town.
