Lio by Mark Tatulli for July 08, 2022

So much for doing the chores before the ice cream man comes.

I’ve nearly run into traffic on impulse several times when I hear an ice cream truck going down the opposite side of the road.

And by several times, I mean this month.

Conditioning at work.

Last time I remember ice cream trucks was in the ’50s when we had the Good Humor man in Long Beach, CA.

That would be me, too. Except the hole in the door would be a bit bigger.

Should have installed a Lio flap in the door.

Next summer chore: buying and installing a new door…

And if the Sardine Truck comes by, there will undoubtedly be an Ishi-shaped hole in the door.

My goodness. That’s some pomatum that Liō uses for his forelock, it’s apparently stiff enough to knock through a wooden door.

Does dad ever wear clothes? He seems to be in his undies again. Or he’s wearing really ugly shorts with fuzzy socks.

As we had an ice cream truck in the 60’s but no cash!

We still have them in Washington state, we had ’em in Colorado too
