ode to intown ace

I tried to find fishing line at Home Depot and then I tried at target.  Nothing.  Target had fishing poles, but not fishing line.  Seriously.  David suggested the Intown Ace Hardware on North Highland near our apartment.  I said I doubted that they would have it since Home Depot didn’t and as I was about to turn onto Ponce to try the much hated (by me) Walmart on Howell Mill, I decided to heck with it.  Turns out that they had it.  I am consistently impressed by this little hardware store.  When Home Depot couldn’t copy a key for me, they could.  Their staff is very nice and helpful.  Now, I just walk in, ask if they have (blank) and without hesitation the cashier points to some cranny of the store and low-and-behold there is the fishing line.

So…yeah…Intown Ace on North Highland…good store.
