Main Street Hardware in the News

Do you know how some things seem to go full cycle? Back when the Kansas prairie was being settled there were people/families that would open stores or trading posts that would be the one-stop shopping for everyone for miles around, simply because it was the ONLY store for miles around. Here you bought your groceries and hardware, but most of all, this was the place that you picked up and dropped off your mail. In recent years our small town has "lost" our grocery store and post office. Instead of just accepting these losses, Sondra Nickell has taken on the work and our small town again has a "General Store" in our Main Street Hardware. Watch the video below of the feature story by KWCH...

Anybody that like Nillson has good taste in music.

Thanks KSmed! My taste in music covers a broad spectrum, but Nilsson is an old favorite that is underappreciated. :)

Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!

Well Anon, as much as I appreciate the compliment it's difficult to believe your sincerity since this exact same post can be found on my main blog and also on one of KSHIPPYCHICS blogposts. If you ARE sincere you certainly need to work on YOUR creativity and orginality. No idea who you are, you leave no link to anything, which also means you don't appear to be spam. So I will leave this comment and just wonder about it.
