what do they do now?

I believe they still do, but I could be wrong.  I know it was a couple of brothers and they closed a lot of stores.  There was talk of some family members buying out the others, but I don't know if that happened and if it was her dad buying out her uncle or the other way around.  Anyway, they're all good people.

sidenote: her brother is super emaw, good chance he's a lurker or poster.

My best friend's uncle owned the one in Harper (or Anthony, but I think Harper).  His uncle opened just so his cousin would have something to do.  I always stopped at it on my way from Tulsa to Garden City.  I don't know if it is still open though.

Basement garage.  I'd manually push open a tiny garage door, and drive into my basement.
