STONE HARBOR, NJ — I have mentioned Springer’s before, but I’ll do it again. The place has great ice cream and is a Seven Mile Beach institution. By my calculations, my son and his cousin, became the fifth generation of my family to enjoy ice cream there. Will had chocolate and banana on separate visits. My dad had rum raisin as always and my mom had lemon. I don’t know what the rest of us had, but I went with my usual. We went there only three times during our visit, though it’d be pretty fun to go nightly.

Springer’s has been owned by Barbara and Neil Humphreys of central Virginia since 1975. He took the famed Penn State Ice Cream Short Course. Next year, they are inviting back anybody whoever worked at Springer’s since they bought it for a reunion.
