As the springtime temperatures in Texas continue to rise, you can find a location in downtown San Marcos that has a cool way to beat the heat; Geoff Gorman has more in this Bobcat Update.

Rhea's Ice Cream Shop has been satisfying customers for more than two years. Former Texas State student Rhea Ortmond decided against pursuing a degree in fashion design. She instead opened a business -- her very own ice cream shop. All of the ice cream and waffle cones are handmade in her kitchen -- in an area that includes an artistic flare.
Ortmond 0:17 … how it started
At the beginning of each month Rhea develops new flavors from ideas she receives in the shop's Flavor of the Month box. A few of her unique flavors include caramel sea salt, powdered doughnut and there was one called bacon.

Making the ice cream takes from 15 minutes to an hour.

Not only do the flavors of the ice cream reflect Rhea's personality, but the art and colors on the wall express how bubbly and lively she really is.
