INTRO
We are 3 weeks into summer, and I am certain that every one feels about the same – HOT. No matter where you are in America, temperatures have increased and if your grass isn’t green, it’s the perfect shade of Burnt. There is no greater sound to a child’s ear after playing in the heat most of the day than “You guys want to grab some ice cream?” Who can say no to that?
