ON THE BOARDWALK
Grand Lake Mercantile Company

Currently a clothing store, serving up everything from T-shirts to jeweled jeans.
Several of my friends work here, outfitting travelers for a week at the lake.
The only down side - no heat.

What can you expect from a building that's over 100 years old?
The old Merc. has retained much of its original look.
Same gable roof, window design. Even the green and white awning.
Postmaster, HM Harbison managed the store from 1900 to 1910.

All I know about HM.-----
There's a meadow sporting his name in Rocky Mtn National Park.
A great place to picnic in the summer, and listen to elk bugling in the fall.


So, HM, this is my salute to you, and your meadow.

Thanks for your comments on "Deer Boy" yesterday.
He leaped over a ditch and ran into the spotlight.
I'm afraid he left the other boys behind.
