If you're driving through Boonesboro or coming back from Antitem battlefield and need something to cool down that sweet tooth they're giving away smiles and tasty treats at Potomac Street Creamery.
We came on a Friday afternoon and the inside still wasn't open but the walk up window was. With only a short line to ponder my flavor I heard they make their own waffle cones. So I ordered that along with one scoop x3 for our group, it came to about $8.50. Make sure to bring that cold hard cash because this window doesn't accept cards.
