I biked from Jeff City to McBaine and back Sunday and found a new gem on the trail. There's a faded overgrown sign at Wilton that says there's a store just off the trail. I'd seen the sign before but it always looked like a gamble.

Let me tell you that the store there is for real. Modern it was not, but it had lots of atmosphere, cold drinks, and friendly service.

I'm so glad to see someone mention that little store. To me that kind of place makes the Katy Trail so much fun. The couple who own the store are Native American. They are mentioned in the Katy Trail book. The lady did illustrations of birds and maybe plants for a book about nature along the trail. I like the jewelry she makes.
