Steven's Hardware 50 Years In Annapolis - and some old snaps of downtown after Isabel 2003
I have intended to dig up Isabel shots to share in honor of Steven's Hardware's 50 year anniversary and I finally did. My favorite hardware store. After all 50 years and outlasting Isabel is REAL Staying Power I would say.

Public Sales Office
I planned to start this blog to document what makes Annapolis Annapolis to me.
I had thought that the Pulic Sales office would be a perfect first post...I was pushed to post sooner than I had planned. Yesterday I had been walking the town and stopped to snap these shots for the post, upon arriving home I found this obituary in the Capital.

I am fairly certain that Mr. Lerner was the gentleman who ran the Public Sales Office. The PSO was a fixture here since 1971 on Main St. It has always had a window full of sunglasses, harmonicas, binoculars, and pocket combs. It was the place for guitar strings. Only open odd hours and always a curiosity. I am saddened to see that it will now likely disappear.
If anyone has anything to add as a remembered feel free to share. Other special sides of Annapolis are appreciated. In this web culture I almost never see enough positive press on the businesses and areas of Annapolis that I respect most. My intention in starting this blog is to keep alive the part of myself that still loves her hometown.
