3 O'Clock Ice Cream


Over the years, one of my favorite things to do is to buy fellow leaders and Staff members an ice cream, dippin' dots, or other cool treats from the Trading Post, exactly at 3:00 pm according to "my" watch.  During the hottest time of the day, we gather, wait with anticipation, go in and select a choice, and go back out and fellowship with each other and enjoy.  There have been conspirators over the years, that sneak in before hand and anonymously buy an ice cream for me.  That is nice and very Scout like.

3 o'clock ice cream:  It is a small way to say "Thanks", but to be totally honest, I just like eating ice cream with my friends!
