Towns are so neat and tidy, sad to see shopping malls spring up and kill off the Mom & Pop stores slowly but surely.
Lovely scenery around the lake.

This one is a bitter sweet situation. The centre is tiny. The grocer is an independent. The locals benefit hugely from having a local store. I know for my friends, it cuts their shopping journey from 30 kms one way to 10. The cafe lost their general dealer stuff but they have not stepped up the turn their cafe into a local delicacies destination. They just make hamburgers
Taking a step sideways into slightly different business, hope it is a huge success.
Small business owners suffer if they don't adopt a unique change, somewhere people look forward to visiting when doing the grocery run.
