Running a small-town business takes a bit of work, and Chip really does do most of it while I work full-time. Besides selling shoes, boots and so many Birkenstock styles (all in different shades of browns - lol!) - he also sells all the “girly” things that I like to have in the store; purses, bracelets, necklaces and earrings. ☺️ Add in the numerous letter jackets and some reconstructing of Birkenstock sandals and he can hardly get outside to sit in our chairs to drink his coffee anymore. 😉
Yesterday, this gentlemen was thrilled that Chip was able to save his Jerry Garcia Special Edition Birkenstocks that will hopefully last many, many more years. Thanks for the photo Chris Lilly!
