In days gone by, this was Ortman's ice-creamery. On a hot summer day you could order one of a dozen flavors of shaved ice or a root beer float. The storefront was painted pink and had a clock mounted above the front door that seldom worked. Now gourmet coffee has replace ice cream, but the clock still doesn't always work.
