This is a GREAT shop. I've known the owners for oh, 30+ years. They're pretty nice people. To bad bad things happen to so many nice people. Pretty ballsy grab & dash, that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteI posted a link to their website, because I feel badly for small businesses in this economy. Stealing from them certainly doesn't help the situation.
