Welcome Back

Day 332

Last October I wrote about a local fish market where there had been a fire. It is a business run by two brothers that has been in the community for over 30 years. These are truly two of the nicest guys you will ever meet.

Today, the store reopened for business. I stopped on my way home from work and encountered two of the happiest fish mongers you have ever seen. It was almost a festive atmosphere as customers trickled in and the story of the last five months was repeated, filled with details of construction, permits, inspections, waiting, more waiting and then the final triumph of receiving the occupancy permit.

The owners were clearly grateful for the customer support and I was grateful to be able to offer it to such a fabulous locally owned family business.
