Hanks is a Ice Cream place that also sell all kinds of food. Very Good.

Heres pictures from one of the days from last summer






Directions from 395 North take exit 87
Take Left ( From 395 South take a Right) off the exit past McDonalds to the stop light and take Left.
Hanks will be about 2 miles on the Left (there is a bowling alley & camper sales next door).
