A nice night for an ice cream treat. Chicago Illinois. July 1987.

One of my all time favorite seasonal sights and sounds I came to know and love growing up in the city of Chicago Illinois, was that of a local ice cream vendor's truck.

These trucks with their little jingling bells, or repeating and sometimes annoying electronic songs played over an external loud speaker, reminded residents of many Chicago neighborhoods that summer was definitely here.

Kids like me loved the ice cream trucks when I was growing up on the near southwest side of Chicago, but most parents HATED them.

Enjoy these summer memories while they last.

Thanks.
