No ice cream to be found

It’s been ages since the very last submarine sandwiches and ice cream cones were made here, just steps from a usually crowded beach.

Time is slowly reclaiming the brightly painted structure, weeds growing through the sun-baked sidewalk, cracks spiderwebbing themselves through the once-vibrant stucco.

If we close our eyes just so, we can still hear the sounds of parents and kids bantering over promised treats before slipping back into the sun-drenched sand.

But there is no sun today, and gauzy days filled with moments where happiness was as close as a waffle cone are promised only to some.
