Hal Smith Store Gets New Owner

Ran by Hal’s from some Sam Light after work today to have Hal tell me that he’s selling the store next week.  You’ll still find Hal in the store for several months and the rest of the staff will be staying with the store.  

Hal Smith's Store

The new name is “At the Corner” and owned by Al Patel from Montgomery.  He’s got two stores in the Capital City, so he’s got some experience in this area.  Hal wanted to urge his regulars to keep coming by the store.
