I'm surprised this didn't receive more space.  Big addition to Florence.  The store in Huntsville is usually very busy.

 

"Expect construction to begin soon on a Gander Mountain outdoors store, which will go up near Kohl’s in Florence."

They are indeed great stores.  On some things, including clothing, they are a bit pricey.  Their stores do not feature some of the showy displays that are found in Bass Pro Shops and the Gander Mountain stores that I am familiar with do not stock the big honking bass boats or pontoon boats found at BPS, and don't have any fast food outlets in their stores, but they have a nice selection of canoes, kayaks, and small outboard-powered water craft. They stock a lot of Columbia products and Merrell shoes and sometimes offer good discounts on these.  I am very well pleased with a Redlington fly-fishing vest I bought from them.  Their fishing section is as big as BPS's and better in my opinion.

 

Welcome, Gander Mountain--we hope!

Yes, David, they have, for instance, those macho, woolly plaid long-sleeved shirts and those rugged 9-inch boots that certain sectors of society identify with.

O No!,   Is this your way of agreeing with me or WHAT?  As hard as I look, I can not find anything in your post that comes from YOU.

You know Beter, I have always respected you for your intelligence and your clear-headed views on politics. It has bothered me that you constantly bash Catholics and Mormons, but this remark takes the cake.  I had no idea you could be such a jerk. I am sorely disappointed with you. Mmrff mmrff mmrff and blah blah blah.... 

O no , several have been  trying to help him with his people skill , but he says our opinion has no substance.

But you know what they say, 'If we could see ourselves, as others see us"

I'm glad to hear him mention Fly Fishing, he may posses more character than I thought.

 

It's good news to have a Gander Mountain Store in the Shoals. We've need a outdoor type store here forever.

 

David, they carry many clothing item mostly outdoor, hiking, hunting, and camping supplies, but truly you should check them out, Everybody needs a good flashlight, batteries, rain gear, thermos, or cooler, since you never know with our weather, when the next storm may surface, bringing a power outage ,

It is just that I also have clear-headed views on the Mormon and Catholic belief systems.  I am consistent in my clear-headedness!

 

Since I am not fluent in the mmrff and blah dialects, I can not address the remainder of your post.

Fly fishing is not necessarily a mark of good character or other virtues.  In my case, it is, in fact, an ADDICTION, but one far less harmful than many.

I lived in the Wilmont , Wi. area where the first Gander Mountain store opened many years ago. It was the place to go for not only sports stuff; but for some of the very best in cold weather clothing. I am sure there is no need for the extreme weather gear but they do carry other things that are very good. Pricey, yes but quality was always good. BWTW: I cannot beleive some of have nothing better to do than start some childish comments back and forth over nothing. They should put in a new subject: JUST FOR IDIOTS TO BASH EACH OTHER!

It's not just here either. I've noticed it on many other forums too lately that in the past have been very friendly and where everyone usually gets along. It's crazy. I honestly think the internet for many has become a place to go and let off steam and be mean, rude and downright nasty because of the anonymity.

I hang out with a woman.  I refer to her as my WIFE. She dresses quite conventionally.  Should David acquire a "wife," it will be one, I am sure, that  "identifies" with him in gender. Whether he and his "wife" prefer the lumberjack style or some other mode of adornment is entirely up to them.
