Goodbye Dime Store

This has certainly been a week of sad goodbyes for me. It's getting to the point where I jump every time the phone rings or my email chimes. As you can tell from my last post, major parts of my life are disappearing. I guess that's the price of growing old. The owners of Brookside's Dime Store are calling it quits at the end of the month. All Brooksiders have our own unique memories of the place. I won't bore you with mine. George Gilchrist owns the building, and I'm sure he will try everything within his power to find a compatible merchant for the space. It's a sad day for all of us.
