Stopping in for a little bit of an ice cream to cool down after a very spicy lunch nearby! This…read moredairy queen is conveniently located off of Wyatt Earp Blvd. in Dodge City, Kansas. Offering all the Dairy Queen standards we were pleasantly greeted and quickly served. The restaurant itself is pretty basic, but probably in a little need of a sprucing up after a long pandemic. Ice cream was as good as remembered, and a nice treat.

We needed to get from Omaha to Durango with a trailer, and while I might have tried to make the…read moretrip when I was in my 20s, I genuinely needed a night's rest in the middle of that trip attempted in my 40s. Dodge City was roughly halfway, and the suggestion that maybe there was some touristy Wyatt Earp stuff to distract us from the endless visual stimulation of black eyed Susans (those are those yellow flowers, Mildred) was enough to see us book a motel here. Well, the Earp stuff was a flop, and the motel had tragic flaws. After a lackluster Applebee's dinner, we were ready to never speak of this stop again, but on a Hail Mary pass in double OT, we tried to salvage the whole thing with ice cream. I can't walk into a DQ without picturing Parker Posey in Waiting for Guffman. A cursory inspection of the actual staff at this location demonstrated that I did not need to let my imagination wander very far from that portrayal. Nice small town kids, doing their part to fight Dodge City's considerable July heat. The family ordered a mix of cones and Blizzards; each was as good as they always are. No one behind the counter hurt themselves lifting any extra brownie bits or chocolate to put in our ice cream, but it wasn't "Chipotle-light" scoops either. You know what I'm talking about. Just as I was about to write off the whole thing, I looked across the way, and spotted this cute older couple sitting in a booth, enjoying a little ice cream on a hot summer day. And something about it melted my heart like so much ice cream in the sun, realizing that indeed, it's the simpler things that are the most profound. And suddenly, the glass-half-empty Applebee's burger slowly digesting in my gut, the tourist trap bait and switch Wyatt Earp museum operation, and the motel TV that turned off every 90 seconds for no apparent reason suddenly didn't seem like such a big deal. Instead, this time with my wife and children--The latter of which are not getting any younger, and soon enough will no longer join my bride and me on these cross country road trips--suddenly meant much more than anything else. Thank you, Dodge city Dairy Queen, for helping me find a little perspective in the most unassuming of places. As my counselor in high school used to say: if you wanna see God, don't look up. Look around. And while you're looking, have a little ice cream.
