Because there's no air-conditioning

We took a pair of never-worn shoes to Golden Slipper. The dessicant in the box and the tissue hadn't been enough to ward off mildew. GS makes no great promises, but anything will be an improvement. Only Soup Peddler (now taking a summer break) and Sharp's Locksmith, which has been there forever, remain. At least one of the vacant locations, by the looks of it, is soon to re-open, perhaps as a coffee establishment or tacqueria. One year when we went to Mexico, we didn't leave the transoms open, and the air inside the house was quite musty.
