May 26, 2016 was my last day of school in Kim’s classroom. It would have been a sad day, but we took a field trip to Ranison’s Ice Cream & Candy Shop for their homemade ice cream, “a staple of the Coulee Region since 1933.” Ice cream makes everything better! Still, since the child care center closes during the summer months, I will surely miss my UWL teachers and friends… they were so good to me and I learned so much. But, no need to offer your condolences… I get to spend the summer at home, with Ashlee as my babysitter!! Not only is she my bestie, but she can also reach the ice cream in the freezer. Bring it on, summer vacation!
