Walking down main street this shop caught my eye…read more It's located where the candle store used to be (a few of the candles are still sold at the Gait Mercantile) and was simply drazzled in pearls and other sparkly morsels. Incredibly tempted by the $18 freshwater pearl necklace on a silk ribbon I waffled between the glittery and the thoughtful. When would I ever wear pearls? Now, I really wish I had purchased a necklace of them, just to say I had one, but alas. No string of lovely for me that day. All in all, I'd love to return and may look into if they ship. A very nice addition to main street!

We were walking…read morefrom our parking spot to the Eel River Cafe and Sheryle saw a top she liked in the window, so I was really happy when the girl came and opened the store for us when we were walking back. As you can see from my photographs, they have some really fun selection. It's really all women's clothes, and has great jewelry so it's a perfect stop for the ladies and especially for couples. The woman running the store was really nice and friendly, and I think she opened up a couple minutes early because she saw that we were interested, which I really appreciated. This is definitely a place that I can recommend stopping by if you're passing through, and if you're a local to the Garber area then I think you'll enjoy making this a regular stop.

Personally, I've worn an analog watch since I learned to tell time and, living remotely where there's no service and working outdoors in all kinds of weather, it's easier to glance at your wrist than dig out some bulky pocket hog. When I noticed my watch's time was inaccurate and the secondhand was motionless, choosing to just walk in and see if I could get a new battery on the spot and, though I failed to get her name, I received the kindest, promptest and extremely affordable service with a beautiful smile, nonetheless! My body burns through watch batteries for some strange reason so, I'll be de-relegating my other beloved timepieces from their timeless dustbin, that being the farthest reaches of my sock drawer to hopefully be put back to use.
