Notes from the edge of civilization

We went to a local (a few miles to the west of us) Ace Hardware today to get a shower grab rail.  Afterwards I went onto Google Maps to write a review and found this one star previously submitted:

4 months ago

Warning as of last month. Higginbotham family sold the business. The first thing that happened with the new owners was that guns and ammunition were removed from the store. Do not shop there. This store does not line up with Liberty Hill values anymore. 

I'm sure the lack of available guns at the Ace Hardware was the central theme of discussion at the Liberty Hill Cowboy Church that week.

On the bright side we did solve a problem today.  amw had asked if the new HEB had bike racks.  I can happily say they were installed yesterday.  Enough for 10 or so bikes.  No third world slouches here!!
