Mora Iced Creamery, Bainbridge Island

There is nothing like stopping for an ice cream treat on a warm summers day.  Just after the 4th of July parade Terri and I stopped at Mora Iced Creamery.  The store is located just off Winslow way at 139 Madrone Lane.  On a warm, summer day, its a perfect place to sit in the sun and enjoy their wonderful ice cream.

They make their ice cream in small batches to maintain their high quality, using fresh milk, real eggs and cane sugar.  The result is a real treat, even on a cold winter’s day.

Mora current has three locations.  Kingston and Poulsbo, but my favorite is on Bainbridge Island.

I highly recommend a special trip to Bainbridge Island and the Mora Iced Creamery for locals and visitors a like.

As a side note, I was wondering how I was going to get my grand kids to come visit us from Boise.  The solution is simple – a bribe!  Mora sends its ice cream world wide.  The challenge is to be sure the kids get a taste before their parents eat it all up.

Downtown Winslow, Bainbridge Island

Before the World Wide Web was born on August 6, 1991, I decided I wanted to be a syndicated traveling writer.  I would drive around the United States and find interesting people and places to write about and send my copy to my editor.  I never could work out the logistics of the process to my editors satisfaction so I never followed through.

Then the Internet was born and I discovered the idea of Blogging.  When the concept started, I found that I needed to learn a certain amount of coding.  Not an easy task for someone who’s greatest challenge to that point was putting a sheet of paper in my IBM Selectric without getting a paper cut.

I did discover email, which made my idea of being a traveling writer a bit more plausible.  I did a few travel pieces, from time to time, because it was easier to get them to the editor.  I would write the story, stick it in an email and press send.  The editor was more open to this idea since the logistics were more straight forward.  He just had to print the piece and hand it to the production team.

Later, as Blogging software became more sophisticated (WordPress in particular) I became a Blogger, mainly because I could write my articles more easily.  Writing a Blog is similar to how I wrote with a Selectric but with a few more easy steps.

Now, in semi-retirement (whatever that really means), I sit at my computer and write about Bainbridge Island.  I am not a traveling writer, but I’m having a lot more fun.
