What were the different kind of artisans that were found in the street of small town?
Answers
Small towns exist in snow globes, as time capsules of a simple, forgotten way of life, perfectly preserved by those fiercely dedicated to “the way things always were”.
At their cores are the original moms and pops: the proprietors of long-standing local hardware stores and salons and arcades—people you know on a nickname basis.
Though I’ve spent the past 17 years in North America’s fourth largest city, my small town vocal inflections flood back, y’all, as soon as the tallest building slips out of view.
As much as I’ve tried to scrub myself of my rural crust, assume city sophistication, it grows back persistently like arctic moss. And now? I’m thankful I couldn’t shake it. My small town retirement plan has been upgraded to a 5-year plan. The sticks are calling, and I have answered by buying property in a quiet rural community.
