BLOG ---------------  MID SEPTEMBER  2023



Well believe it or not, it is Papa Robb. Please accept my apology for the lack of communication this year. A crazy year to say the least. Also little if any special attractions. Crazy yes, but also challenging on several levels. Trying to finally get over & recover from all the ramifications of Covid. (sadly many did not recover).

Let's throw in some health issues along with weather that can only be called abnormal, unusual, etc. But THANKS to YOU loyal friends & customers we are still here.

However there are some important changes on the way for several reasons. Big number one is that this year, around October 1, we will enter our winter schedule earlier than in the past..

Starting October 1, we will be open on Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday. Cosed on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday.  Hours: Open at 2:00 & close at 8:00. (when Daylight Savings Time ends in Nov. we will close at 7:00)

As in the past we expect to close for the year the end of November & reopen next year around the end of March.

NOTE: All of this is open for adjustments depending on circumstances.

Why & What's Up? you may ask. Age & health & family responsibilities. Papa will be 75 years old the end of December. I do not plan to hang up my helmet entirely, but I will not be on the field as much as in the past. I have a few health issues & they need to be looked into with more detail. Some of these go way back & a couple since late last year.

So I will spend some time during the last quarter of this year with some super doctors. Probing & poking; tests, procedures & discussions I feel sure.

So that's it. I am looking forward to my nineties when my youngest grand child steps out on her own. Papa Robb's Paradise Ice is not going away. Just slowing down a little earlier this year, plus our catering & mobile sales continue. A plug here: remember to visit us at the Wonderland event with the Multiply Church in December. Always a great time.
