Well we have had quite a May. I got a phone call at 1 in the morning on May 12th - one I always feared - that our beloved store was on fire. Arriving at the scene was surreal - fire trucks from several towns, a ladder extended onto the roof and a cloud of billowing smoke. This season was our favorite since we took over the store from our parents. We were so pleased with the variety of inventory and the depth of available choices. One electrical mishap and it was gone, or so we thought.
After two weeks of hard labor and countless volunteers we have salvaged about 85% of our stock - some a little smokier than others but all will be fine with a washing. So although we are unable to offer this merchandise for sale on-line, we will be having a tremendous "fire sale" next week. Everything will be available at great prices!!
Now we have a good sized construction project on our hands but we are excited about some of the changes we will be making including opening a super cool enlarged 7-14 department on the second floor. Have a great Memorial Day and we will be in touch!
