I like to shop in my local town whenever possible. With new mega stores springing up in all over the place, it’s sometimes easy to overlook our local Mom & Pop stores that have been the backbone of this country since inception. Whenever I go to our local hardware store, not only does Bobby the owner know my name but he also dispenses home repair advice as well as words of wisdom. Bobby once told me that ‘We are all in this together and if we don’t support each other, who will.” That day Bobby was talking about supporting local business but he could just as well have been talking on a more global level.
