Strip mall in Gilford

gravy boat · 06-15-2020, 06:05 PM

Interesting to have watched how so many moved up here to get away from the strip malls and crowds....to leave the rat race behind. And here we have more stores - large and small - coming continually. In a few years all who came here for refuge from commercial areas and traffic will find themselves...back to square one in commercial areas and traffic.

People move to a place hoping it will not change but their presence causes change.

That strip mall has been there for YEARS and the majority of it unoccupied in recent years. Tractor Supply moving in and leasing the majority of the existing building would certainly be a welcome addition to the community! Tractor Supply is the perfect store for that location and will provide many items of need for area residents.

Dan missed opportunity. The answer could have been "Yes it Tis."

I have often wondered how many people think that is why I picked that, but tisn't. The 3 letters actually stand for something.

Not stealing your thunder as it was a great comeback but...the proper use would have been:

“Yes, ‘Tis”
