a local county institution has closed.
i went by to snap a shot of it's retro sign and remembered that i had taken a few more shots a year ago.
i love these sorts of places. always have. character rich. quirky. independent. hard working. a place you make sure you stop by and get a little something to offer them fiscal support.
the area is already a food desert. another store like it also shut down near the border, it was the only grocery story in that small town.
it would be awful if a gas station/ convenient store went in.
so ordinary.
maybe another small independent grocer will scoop it up.
yes ....that's a better idea.
