The historic main street in my town, the one they've bouged up with brown street signs on black posts rather than the standard DOT green signs on galvanized poles, there's like 10 or 12 storefronts down there that play host to an endless list of short lived businesses practically all run by women in their mid-40s with nothing to do. Yoga studios, antique stores, clothing boutiques, crepe restaurants, tea shops, basically none last two years.
