SF Wkend 2: Palo Alto Ace Hardware

We flew to San Jose because I had always wanted to see the campus of Stanford University.  We had to rent a car and drive anyway, and I figured it would be easier to get in and out of SJC than SFO.  We had a great lunch at a little cafe in Palo Alto, then saw this way cool old Ace Hardware store.  I had to stop for my dad.


They had the old style bin for nails, which I remember vividly from my youth.  Not too many hardwares sell nails by the pound this way anymore....


Bobbins, of course, found one of her long-time interests, Nutcracker Toy Soldiers
