I was in the loop when they closed down and was able to find a lot of old model rocket parts , damaged and opened kits Ect. It does not seem like it has been 18 years that Orange Blossom has been gone but they say the older you get the faster time passes.
But my memory is still as good as it ever was ,I can close my eyes and see the place as if it was yesterday.

You know, I don't miss many things from years gone by, but the old style family hobby store is one that I do miss a lot. Buying stuff online is simple and convenient, but there is nothing like rummaging through an overstocked hobby store looking for that treasure at the back of the shelf. What fun.
