It took us about one hour, then we met at the Woodpile for lunch. I like this little town of Liverpool, but when city people come to "do" the town, they are always surprised with the lack of choices. Our downtown consists of one street about two blocks long, with commerce on both side of the street. If you enter every store and look at the objects carefully it will take an hour and a half and if you walk without entering any store it takes twenty minutes, which is what Bill and Don did today. We three ladies took an hour, but we were successful in our purchases. Doreen purchased three tops from Frenchy's and Marg bought several old videos. At the Value Plus store I bought a pair of Capri's and a shirt, all on sale.
The best part of the downtown trip today was lunch at The Woodpile. Great food and enthusiastic staff. My fajita wrap was excellent, with just a bit of spice unusual to Nova Scotia cooking, which tends to be bland. The worst part is that the couple who runs the business has already separated and are trying to sell the business. It seems so foolish in many ways, not the least of it that they have two children. I feel the need to shake them both or at least talk sense to them. But I won't, because it is none of my business, but I will be sad if the place closes down. It is a great addition to the downtown experience. In fact, today, it was the best place in town!!
