Pumpkin, Again

Mountain Breeze in "downtown" Sewanee sells Clumpies ice cream, just about the best ice cream I think I've ever eaten. Each year, for a brief time, my favorite flavor is featured: pumpkin. After cleaning the Shenanigans gallery about an hour ago, I walked over to Mountain Breeze to see if pumpkin was on the list yet. It does! I ate a lovely, large single scoop on an old fashioned cake cone and then came home with a half-pint. Texture (smooth like gelato) and flavor (like cold pumpkin pie, meaty and spicy) combine into joy.

Oh my.

Trail of Tears Motorcyclists

As I finished showering this morning, I heard their roar, toweled quickly, and rushed downtown so I wouldn't miss them. I was not disappointed. Thousands of motorcyclists roared by on their Trail of Tears fundraiser from Chattanooga to Florence, Alabama. A few hearty Sewanee citizens gathered on the grass near Taylor's, Shenanigans, and Mountain Breeze and waved as the men, children, and children rolled by. One picture just doesn't tell the story.
