17. Around here, we have the local Farm Bureau store.

Fascinating place. It was there that I learned how bull de-nutters worked (I bought one to keep on the coffee table -- makes for some really interesting conversations with guests!). Great place to browse around (especially if you've ever read any of the "Firefox" books). The nearest Tractor Supply store is a little bit farther than my car will reliably make it, but I love nosing around in there, too.

Ditto with the nearest Cracker Barrel, too far away to drive comfortably, but I like it. At least there's the local choke-n-puke truck stop a few miles down the road where I can periodically load up on cheesy eggs and grits before I come back home to plan that evening's country-fried chateaubriand and Iced Cabernet Sauvignon Punch.

I stand comfortably with a foot in both worlds.
