Years ago I went there wearing a t shirt from an air show, it had a pic of the nose of a B52 Bomber with a pinup girl painted on it, one of the Taylor's threw me out telling me not to come back until I learned to dress appropriately. The young couple who own the company now are very nice people

Owned the last remaining hardware store before he passed away.
I miss the mean old coot.
