Waitin' on a Man 4

I woke up yesterday morning and I just knew.

It was the day that I would catch the Ice Cream Man.

I got all dressed up and sat on the front porch steps an hour ahead of schedule. He wasn't going to slip past me this time.



I got really bored just sitting on the porch. And cement is not exactly comfortable. So I took to pacing the driveway.


I had my money all ready to go.


And then I heard it. The music box melody that signaled the truck was getting close!


Turns out I was never waiting on a man. I was waiting on a woman. She was very nice and only gave me a few "You're crazy" looks when I took pictures of her truck!


I purchased a couple of "Big Sticks" from the Ice Cream Truck. (Which also sold candy and chips and soda. Nice. I have a feeling I'll be catching the Ice Cream Truck a lot more if I can.)


That folks, is the smile of success!

The caper is complete and I am fully satisfied!

What would YOU buy from the Ice Cream Truck?

    Anytime I catch the ice cream truck, I always get the ice cream sandwiches. I know I can buy them in the store, but they seem so much better from the truck!

    That is awesome. I love your pictures!! Sadly it's too cold for icecream over here in the Midwest. It SNOWED this morning. :( I wish it would warm up already though! It's April!

    I've been trying to catch our ice cream man (or woman maybe) for months! :O I'm starting to think s/he has forgotten our street completely... But at least you caught your :)

    If I ever catch him/her I'm going to buy a whole bag of chocolate cones.

    Mini - milk in strawberry or vanilla! Yummi - just the right amount of naughtiness, not enough to inspire guilt or a gluttony sickness.

    Haha! Very cute :) I especially love that you took pictures of the ice cream truck, because this is such a "blogger" thing to do. I'm so surprised people even look at us crazy anymore -- I mean don't a TON of people have blogs nowadays, haha?
