We were in hardware heaven today. In the town of Cocoa Fl. there is a hardware store to beat all other hardware store that you have ever seen. It makes the “big box” stores like Home Dept look small (as far as hardware goes).
This place is right out of the 1930’s and has taken over the neighboring buildings and even expanded into the back yard too. They had more stuff than you could shake a stick at. I felt like I was in a toy store for guys, needless to say after about 10 minutes of wandering about Anna went across the street to the antique store. If you went through enough aisles and found your way to the back of the “second” store you’d find the stairway to the second floor.
Once up the stairs you’re into the over filled 2nd floor. There, if you look for it you’d find the open air “cat walk” to the next building where I found over 30 feet of one aisle dedicated to nothing but canning and in another aisle WWII items!
It was a journey, 80 years back in time. The staff was very helpful and the prices were very competitive. In was a rare find in such a tourist spot as Cocoa City Fl.
