For the past several months, my morning and afternoon commutes to and from work have taken me past a building under construction only a mile and a half from my home.
A sign next to the building touted: "Coming Soon - Hobby Lobby".
Everyday, as I drove past, I glanced over to see how construction was progressing, greatly anticipating finally having a small source of model rocketry supplies in my neck of the woods.
The store finally opened a couple of weeks ago, and I paid my first visit this past Saturday.
Hanging on the rocketry wall was the usual fare of Estes product carried by all Hobby Lobby stores.
I am elated that I have this so close to home now. Previously, I had to travel to Lone Tree (South Denver), a 20 mile drive from Castle Rock, to get to the nearest Hobby Lobby.
Time to start printing out them 40% off coupons......
