I told my wife I was going to run up to the corner grocery store for more bananas. I eat a lot of them. I got some apples as well. It is just 1/2 a mile away.

A company named Atwoods Ranch and Home just opened a new store right across the street from the grocery store. The first two weeks it was nuts busy, and they had people parking on the grass lot in front of their property. The regular lot was just full, and the place was nuts, so I figured I could wait a couple of weeks.

I had left my phone at home (gasp) as I planned to be gone 5 minutes. Atwoods is like Tractor Supply on steroids. Everything from many different types of feed, deer corn. cowboy boots and farm clothes. I ignored all of that. I started in the tools and automotive area. They have a decent selection of bolts, plumbing supplies. lawn and garden chemicals and fertilizers, and power hand tools.

I made it to the other end of the store, and they have a nice gun store, and a large selection of ammo. I browsed the guns from small concealed carry, to huge 357s, rifles and shotguns. I picked two boxes of 9mm Blazer target rounds. 13 bucks for 50 per box.

I paid cash, and got a bag of free popcorn for my wife. I got home and got the third degree, were was I, and why did I not have my phone. The popcorn was a genius move on my part as it quieted her anger.

I was gone for almost 30 minutes and no phone! How did we survive the years from birth to getting cell phones? I did just fine. Don't get me wrong, I love my phone and will never give up a smart phone. I love it's functionality and it is my second brain.
