It's the South

A new building has been going up on the edge of town. The joke is,  It's another dollar store. 

• Population of our little hamlet? - 4600, give or take. 
• Number of dollar stores? - 4.
• Our newest business? -Another dollar store.

I stopped to take this picture and a woman ambled out to my car with a smile, "Do you need something?" 

"No, I wanted to post on my blog that we now have 5 dollar stores." 

She waved her hand. "Oh, we moved. That store down the block is closed. Have you been inside? We have groceries." She gestured come hither, "Check it out." 

I went in and looked around. Nice store. Nice people.

Hospitality in the face of adversity. It's the South. I love it. And my new dollar store.
