Our local privately owned grocery store

We have one here too. It is pretty large and has been owned by a father/son combination for many years. Big inventory, good sales, competitive with the prices in the nearest large city.

We live in the middle of the "Big Nothing" in the Rolling Plains here in TX. We have great neighbors and the community has many families who have lived here for generations. My family was here before a town. They moved here in the mid 1880's.
