Margaret's Grocery – Crumbling Folk Art
In 1979 Margaret Rodgers, widow and store owner, married H.D. Dennis, a 63 year old preacher , who got to work transforming the store with bible verses, pink and red paint, artificial flowers, and Christmas lights. Margaret died a few years ago and H.D. is living in a nursing home so his work is slowly crumbling and will soon be just be a pile of colorful rubble.
The property is closed to visitors but there’s a large pull off so that you can stop and check it out. Grocery
