That's great news, Jim. Congrats.

Big thanks back to you for keeping us all informed.

On a personal note, your blog helped my husband's business a bit. He's massaged your sister a couple times and I believe she's a satisfied client.

Pretty cool how this world wide web connects us all.

Several Local Businesses Closing Up Shop

Over the next couple of months, three local businesses will be closing their doors. On Saturday, February 16th, Polka Dots will be closing their store at 246 Bridge Street.

"The things that sold in Paoli didn't sell in Phoenixville," she said, adding that some customers thought that the store was too expensive or the sizing did not go high enough (size 12 being the highest size sold).
