We live in a modern world, vastly different from, say, life before World War II. But, that doesn’t mean we can’t get glimpses of the early days of the 20th century and even before. We can visit museums to learn more about yesteryear. However, when we really want to feel as though we’ve stepped back into the past, we simply need to visit the places around us that have stood the test of time. Like this general store in Missouri that’s been around since before World War II.
Feel the nostalgia wash over you - or maybe even a longing for bygone eras - when you shop at Crane's Country Store in Williamsburg.
In fact, you're likely to find just about whatever you need at the classic country store. Peruse the spacious general store as you stock up on groceries, including...
Of course, you might just work up a mighty appetite after all that shopping. Good thing that Crane's is right next door to Crane's Museum and Marlene's Restaurant, where you can indulge in a delicious meal.
