Shop Rockport, even in the winter!
Yesterday I was very happy to get out of the house and enjoy a day of walking, working and shopping. I went to Rockport, and although the shopping area seemed abandoned compared to summer months, upon closer inspection I found many businesses open. (See below for a partial list of businesses that are open during the winter in Rockport during the winter).
You might think there is nowhere to park, but I found parking easily as the usual tourists are not around and there weren’t many people to be found. But here’ a couple of folks I did run into…
Traci Budrow at Sand Castles wants you to know that that everything in their store is 50% off, right now! Including these tee shirts!
Jamie Russell himself was out shoveling his walk way and wants you to know he will be open in the days leading up to Valentine’s Day. Give him a call to confirm his hours!
This dog was determined to get into the Hula Moon Café! No owner was nearby, the folks at Hula called the police department to report a stray dog. Hope he or she made it home!
Here is a partial list of businesses open in the winter in Rockport. Always call ahead or look online for specific business hours which might be limited during the winter, especially during and after snow storms!
