Survivor

"Finders Keepers" (a Parkville tradition) was almost totally destroyed in the Flood of '93. Nevertheless, the owner rebuilt in the same place. Now in 2011, the store is doing its best to stay open until the flood waters come up to the door step. In '93, flood waters reached the top of the doors. Everyone is praying that the same doesn't happen once again. From the gallery http://www.pbase.com/britestar/2011_flood_of_the_century

Looks like a lovely shop - hope it survives the flood.
