The Salvation Army stores have come a long way. When I drive by ours the lot has BMWs, Caddies, Mercedes, taking up the parking spaces.

Well, this one seems pretty close to its mission statement. There's no parking lot. I think the space was originally a Woolworths-type five and dime store built in the early 1900s. I'm quite sure a tram line ran up and down the broad Main Street back then (you can just tell from the size and shape of the street, but this reminds me to stop into the Library and check out a little history on it.)
