“This store is attached to the restaurant, and I had to check it out. It's a local business, aimed at the construction workers and farmers in the area, which I think is really neat. This area doesn't have a lot in the way of shopping, so it's basically a convenience store with a gas station vibe (and a dual sided gas pump just outside). The prices are probably a bit high for snacks, but what place isn't becoming expensive nowadays. There's a solid selection of snacks and alcohol and soft drinks, and the clerk was a very nice lady. There's also an area for fountain drinks if you're looking to quench your thirst. This is a great place to stop and support a true local business. Oh and the sign on the door is hilariously fantastic.”
