We had the nicest morning exploring Springville's downtown. We headed to Hank Vaud's furniture store to check out their mattresses. We need to get something set up in our guest room, since Taylor's parents visit in a week, and mine come in early April! Though we didn't buy anything there, we enjoyed a nice conversation with the owner. He had been working in the furniture business for 63 years. Wow!
Then we went across the street to Funfinity, a great toy and game store. We only window-shopped, but David enjoyed walking around with so many toys to look at.
Afterwards we ate lunch (a delicious cajun chicken sandwich) at a natural foods store. It's nice to have something a little "alternative" in Springville. The food was absolutely fantastic -- I'm sure we'll return.
And afterwards we walked into SOS Pharmacy. They still have a 50s style soda fountain, and for about $2 we had a great chocolate malt. Lots of historic paraphernalia in the store. They could spruce the place up a bit and really make it more of a landmark.
The day had started grey but turned sunny. It was a beautiful Saturday together!

Oh how fun. Springville really is the quaintest, cutest town around. I love there little downtown and the old fashioned sort of store fronts. Reminds me a bit of downtown Corvallis.
