				<div align="center">(http://www.gbhardware.com/gbhardfrnt2.jpg)</div><br>Adrian Strong Sr. established the store in the early 90's with his son having been born the day of the grand opening of the place. Every year they throw a huge party in the store to celebrate both of those things. The store is near the center of town though it does take up quite a bit of space since Adrian Sr. has made various improvements to the place to increase it's size and such.

				Today, Adrian was more or less stuck on duty as one of the many cashiers. It was a pretty slow day to be honest and there was no telling if it was going to pick up if at all. Behind the counter, Adrian was working on whittling a bird out of some of the spare wood that they had around. So far it was not all that structured but he was making good strides toward it, or at least he hoped so. His father was not in the shop today. Mostly it was due to the fact that he had told his father to go have a day for himself and Adrian's mother. It was not often that the parents had time to hang out and enjoy each others company.<br><br>There were enough supervisors here to cover for his father's absence and even though Adrian was not a "paid" worker, he listened to what they told him and respected the authority that they had earned. None of them seemed to care about his whittling of the wood since it was so slow and some of the customers were actually a little entertained by Adrian doing so. After work was over, he was going to head home to go work on a little secret project where he was going to be a secret passage to his room instead of the usual door. Maybe he would even start a conversion of it into a panic room if he ever got time. <br><br>Adrian was not doing it because he was paranoid for his own safety but more for his parents. Elliquiy was not a dangerous town by any real stretch of the imagination but he knew that his parents had enemies. Any successful business owner has them, and he was going to protect them from harm as best he could. If he had to sacrifice his bedroom to do so then so be it. Soon he was going to get his own apartment anyway. Before he got too lost in his thoughts, a customer appeared and he began to help them out before returning to whittling after the transaction was over.

Clane an son<br><strong>Location: </strong>Hardware Store<br><strong>Tagging:</strong> Adrian <hr><br>Gareth had been giving the local hardware store quit a bit of business over the last few days. He had to put a lot of work, money and patience into the house he had grown up in. In the eleven years he had been gone, his father had let it fall into disrepair right before his passing and renting it out made it worse. Luckily the Elliquy native didn't have any lack of knowledge when it came to home maintenance and repair. He had worked alongside his dad when he was younger and could do most of it on his own. <br><br>Corbin was a different story, the little tike had been very good lately but he needed some fresh air. Gareth had a few errands to run and on top of that, he wanted to take his son and their dog to the park for some playtime. His job would be starting soon so he also had to find someone he could trust to take care of him. Luckily the chief said that Corbin could be at the fire house until he secured someone to watch Corbin but he did not plan on dragging his feet. <br><br>The boy shy of his first birthday hung from his father's chest in one of those kangaroo slings many men wouldn't be caught dead in. With one of the flat trucks loaded with items he needed to repaint various rooms, plumping supplies, two extra windows/frams, some lumber flooring and enough locks for the entire house - Gareth made his way to the register.<br><strong>"Hey, nice duck?" </strong>Gareth greeted before Corbin looked at the toy. "Quack!" &nbsp;His son chimed in with a fit of joyful giggles. The former marine looked at the young man, almost recognizing him. <strong>"You look familiar...you Arian's boy? Jr right?" </strong>Gareth recalled, they were years apart, meaning he was at the end of high school career when Adrian was barely entering middle school. In a town like Elliquy, it was hard not to know of someone if you didn't know them personally.
