End of an Era

My record store for the past twenty or so years, Ranch Records, is closing tomorrow. A shock when I firs heard the news a few weeks ago .... it hurts. A place I have often visited and where I found great comfort and enjoyment within.

It lessens the entire community. 

One by one, these places ..... book stores, record stores, etc., have been disappearing. And the older I get, each loss hurts just a little more and is felt just a little deeper. It's like you're losing one more friend. There will be a void!! Hopefully one that someone is already planning to fill.
