Perry’s store’s closing date has been a moving target for going on 4 years now. The company says it’s closing for a rebuild one day, and then a few weeks later that date gets bumped. Other stores were torn down and rebuilt before his, even though he was on the list for an earlier date.
Another reason to celebrate the 4th of July!
His store’s closing date has been set for July 4th and he believes it this time. After a vacation, he will be floating to other stores in need (probably Sellersburg), until his reopens in March 2025. His current store is old and in disrepair, so he’s beyond excited for the company to complete the project.
Cooking out and swimming during the summer months is pretty typical here at the barndo. While fun, it’s not necessarily a celebration per se.
But considering three important things all happen on the say day — Perry’s store is closing; he’s starting vacation; and it’s Independence Day — it will be extra special this year. At least for Perry. 😉
With one week to go, I predict…
One week until 7/4, I predict the corn will grow so much after the recent rainfall that I won’t be able to see the barndo of those pesky neighbors by then. I’ll let you know if I’m right.
Now you know: Anne, Queen of Great Britain had at least 17 pregnancies over a 17-year period & had miscarried or given birth to stillborn children at least 12 times. Of her 5 live-born children, 4 died before the age of two & her sole surviving child, Prince William, Duke of Gloucester, died at age eleven.
