The town where I live was formerly a blue collar town with shops like hardware stores, laundromats, five and dimes, diners, etc.
About 15 years ago the town started to reinvent itself as a hip destination for dining out. The posh restaurants on the main street have proliferated in recent years, in addition to the little boutiques, yoga studios and thrift stores.
Still, there are some holdouts from the town's past. Follow the main street long enough, and just before the businesses drop off, you'll find our very own taxidermist.
It's always a little startling to be reminded of this shop's existence when Stevie and I walk to get icecream at night.
