Clark Store

We had to stop, and it's old since 1889 with a new front, a combination store, post office, deli, liquor store, gift shop, ice cream store, library, coffee  shop...an old fashioned general store. I meant to get a pix of the woodburning stove, but somehow missed it. But what a treat in Colorado.




And of course, at checkout, to tempt you.

A logo comes home to roost

l'Twas no ill Eagle
that did something illegal...
a federal crime
without doing time;
using its claws,
ignoring the laws--
airmail with an attitude
in post office spatitudes
