I'm not a fan of the Target - Hudson Bay Company thing either... come on HBC is the oldest operating company in the world, and Canadian... so why couldn't it stay that way? Oh well all the old stores like Simpsons or Eatons are being undercut by the box stores.... I'm worried that if the Target thing goes through the Bay will become a slightly classier WalMart.
Okay back to the thread... their not exactly stores, but I miss the old road-stops along Hwy.69 when it was a two lane highway... combination greasy-spoon, ice cream parlor, craft store, information booth, and tourist store... oh well there's only 1 or 2 left (and those will also be gone soon).
