Our theater, which not long ago was one of only two that had been in operation for some length of time, has recently closed. Most of the small stores are closed, but we do have two large supermarkets, a couple of cafes, a big fancy country club. Curiously, there are very few bars. I think the drinkers must be at the clubs (american legion, VFW, Elk's etc) to socialize in the evenings. Those few bars we do have close very early, except for one. As the largest town in the county, this one is a veritable metropolis for people. Before the big stores and fast food joints opened on the outskirts of town (Runnings, Tractor Supply, Mcdonalds) out main street was very busy, all storefronts full and bustling. Now, half of them are empty. We had a great shoe store until the covid con hit. I would buy shoes there nearly every time I came to town. It's still a great place to live though. Lots of artists in the hills, where they can get a spectacular studio and home for the price of one square meter in Manhattan.
