Live the Trail News: Hey Y’all! We wanted to give you an update on our little shop. After much prayer and pondering, we have made the decision to stay put in our current location. We love our space and didn’t feel like the move we were planning to a new location was right for us. We thank each and every one of you for your encouragement, love, support, and shopping small. We still have tons of new stuff coming into the shop daily so come see us! God bless you!!❤️
