On Friday afternoon, I rode with Ray to Goldthwaite to the General Store there to pick up a gun he wanted to purchase. This is a gun that is hard to find but we found it at the General Store for sale. Of course I always enjoy a General Store because of the neat cooking items they often stock.
Ray had a great time "shopping" while purchasing his gun. He found plenty of great dove hunting stuff for he and Blair to play with on the dove lease. His great purchase was a battery operated dove whose wings spin around. According to Ray, these fake doves whose wings spin are perfect for attracting dove to the area. I like looking at the dove in my backyard so I may just borrow it after dove season and see how many I can get to flock to my patio.
The General Store had an amazing cooking section too. I bought an old fashioned cornbread mini stick iron skillet. My Grannie had one that was a little bigger but I love this mini one. It makes the cornbread sticks with lots of crust - just the way Ray likes cornbread. I also purchased a tortilla warmer but for the purpose of cooking corn on the cob in the microwave. It is awesome!
General stores have so many wonderful things to view and purchase. I can't wait to go back and spend some time browsing again.
