Huh

Summer                                                             Most Heat Moon

Over to Beisswinger’s hardware store to pick up the mower after repairs. While there I noticed a group gathered amongst the riding mowers on display, two men with Beisswinger tee-shirts and two Chinese or Japanese men taking notes, while a third took photographs. Here’s what surprised me. My reaction.

My first thought. Hmmm, Chinese investors getting ready to make a bid for the Do It Best hardware corporation. In taking care of the mower and payment I forgot to ask anyone who the visitors were, but my reaction itself is noteworthy. How the economic landscape has changed.
