Kevin and I took the short drive last week to historic Downing Street in Hollister to a fun little lunch spot called the Sweet Shack. They specialize in smash burgers, home cut fries, handcrafted and homemade ice cream, and even Italian ice. Wow, they are checking a bunch of boxes of happiness for me right there.
