That was the hardest part. I found many bowls, plates, pitchers and decorative pieces I wanted. Alan also collects and sells unique rocks and fossils of all sizes with literature about each piece. We spent hours at his place talking.

The location on Main Street is only a couple of doors from Second Street so it was a short walk from nearby parking. This place does screen printing and more than half the store is various t-shirts with funny sayings. They average around $18. I found many amusing and purchased one. There was a large variety of other touristy souveniers like key chains, shot glasses, etc. Those were quite affordable, which was great since I was looking for gifts to bring back to a few people. Overall, good selection and prices. The service wasn't very friendly. I wasn't greeted when I entered and checkout was neither warm nor fuzzy. The woman working was alone, so she may have been fatigued or having an off day. If in the area again I would probably drop in to peruse gifts and see if service was any different. I'm giving it 4 instead of 3 stars for the selection, over the service.
