Last Sunday afternoon I passed here while the sky was dark, rain fell, and wiser folks all stayed home.
It is rare to see this part of Ridgefield's Main Street without cars.
This stretch of stores includes several that have been here for years. But, in the center there is a vacancy (behind the middle streetlight and without a sign). This summer Squash's Ridgefield Office Supply closed after 70 years. Longtime residents are quite sad.

Small town business has a hard time surviving. This is one of the consequences of on-line shopping.
Unfortunately this is the trend.
First it was the big box stores...now they all are also on line with deliveries! I try to support local businesses every chance I get, but admit to using some on line things too.
