Happy Birthday Conrad!
On our way home from an invigorating round of golf at Mohegan Golf Course we stopped in Baltic, a village in the town of Sprague. The only place that sells any form of “ice cream” is the Baltic Convenience Store in the center of “town.”
The Store sells all the basics anyone would need and several varieties of ice cream for those needing a fix. There is an upright cooler with pints of multiple flavors of Ben & Jerry’s, a well known commercial product from southern Vermont. In addition they have drumsticks, popsicles, Good Humor bars, ice cream sandwiches, Snickers and Reese’s, and one of my all time faves, Klondike Bars.
I opted for the original Klondike bar, vanilla ice cream with a nice chocolate crunchy shell. Klondike bars have been around since 1922, and are named for the Klondike River in Yukon, Canada, site of a major gold rush in the 1890s.
Today we were celebrating our friend Conrad’s birthday with a round of golf at the Mohegan Golf Course. If you want to get away from it all and enjoy some New England golf at its finest, check out the Mohegan course. If you are driving around southeastern Connecticut and you need a drink or something sweet, check out the Baltic Convenience Store. You won’t be disappointed with either. Fore!!
