End of the Commons General Store, Mesopotamia

Just a fun day having lunch, wandering around the store looking at the items for sale and the displays of antiques, and ending with ice cream! The penny machine to make designs on pennies for 50 cents is a great way to savor a memory without purchasing something you really don't need. And who knew it was home to the world's largest horse and buggy display! Nice peaceful, scenic drive there and back home.

Definitely is a 'general' store. Amazing what you can find inside. The nostalgic items are just that and nice to look at and imagine what life was like at the time some of the items were in their prime. Standing on the store's porch and looking at town, it truly is a step back in time especially for anyone living in a large city. I visited on a Friday and it was interesting to watch the community in their every day lives like several Amish women escorting a group of Amish boys and girls from the store to the park as each savored the precious ice cream in their hand.
