Slow and Steady

It has been a year since Bob purchased the former "Robb's" building in downtown Hot Springs. During this year he has worked on the building and opened a Fix It Shop in the back. He recently completed work on the one bedroom apartment upstairs and is renting out the business section below.

The Fix it Shop is doing remarkably well. He and his partner can barely keep up with items being brought in for repair. He also teaches a weekly class to children from the Boys and Girls Club on bicycle repair, during which time the bikes from the club being stored at the shop are also being fixed.

And as of this week he has begun to carry and sell small motorcycles which are light, fast and suprisingly affordable. Scooters will follow soon. Watch for them.

All of this has been accomplished by my 80-year old husband who loves to repair, restore and keep the locals from having to make a long trip to Chadron or Rapid City. Being a long-time environmental enthusiast, his lifetime goal is to leave the earth with a small footprint. He continues this goal by helping others in this "throw away" society to use and re-use while using less gas and enjoying life.

Let's here it for use and re-use!
