A Note about our Charleston store…. The store has been on
the market for a year to the day. During this time we went between worry about
new owners, 10 year leases, increased rent to “it will all work out”. Well, one
day Rita and I decided that maybe it was time to “get out of the pool”. Our
precious college student was graduating after 4 years with us, the dear family
upstairs was moving into their own home, Diane the owner would be almost 80 if
signing a 10 year lease(yikes) and Rita, the manager wanted to spend more time
with her grands in Florida and husband in Alabama. The shop had accomplished
its original goal of letting tourists and locals know about the larger shop in Summerville.
So, it was indeed time. All the Charleston gals have been offered jobs in
Summerville but most say they want a bit of time off.(We hope they change their
minds.) So… at the end of April we will lock the door, leave thank you notes in
the windows and move things back up the road. We have had a great 13 full
years…the best of times.
We will be starting our 23rd year in Summerville
with Celebration specials towards the end of May! Come eat cake and share the
memories of all the years!
