This is the corner store. It's in our old downtown area. Today on the way to Jesse's baseball game we saw a sign in the window that said, "Closing April 30." That's really sad. It was the old fashioned kind of store where the kids rode their bikes to and bought pop and candy. It was really convenient when we used to have to drive 15 miles to the nearest grocery store. But, we got a new Jewel a year or so ago, and I guess the corner store just couldn't hold it's own against the Jewel. At least my kids got a chance to experience the small town "corner store".

Makes me want to open up a 'corner store' here in West Chicago if I ever win the lottery...
Was it raining, or are those orbs???
Raining. But I do get orbs sometimes, and only in certain places or around certain people. Usually at Colleen's house, and around children, especially Madi.
