Blue Jay Village

Home sweet home grew up a short distance from here. This store, rite Aid, was once called Thrifty's a long long time ago. Still same location, new name. Wish the pet shop still had animals in it though but sadly not. Only food and items needed for pets....

I went to a few places here. They all had what I needed and had friendly staff. Clean and organized.

Small town homey village in the San Bernardino Mountains 5 miles west of Lake Arrowhead Village. Has a cinema, a lovely library, mountain thrift store with some awesome finds, a Jensen Market with a Starbucks inside, a great Taco restaurant where you can build your own burrito or taco and beer is $2 every day, a great Country Furniture Store and a burger fast food place across from the cinema that makes THE WORLD'S BEST FRENCH FRIES! There is also a Thrifty Store where you can get hand scooped ice cream!

Quaint. Small town feel. Only stopped to get a deli sandwich at Jenson's Market. Full supermarket. Bakery. Seems like a pretty good selection as we walked to register. Used to visit a lot in the 80s with my family. First time back since then. Ice rink is gone now a business center. 76 gas station still there. Movie theater. Not familiar any more with the rest if the town's layout or available stores. Did see a public notice to develop an area in the center of town into a resort. Unknown if it has already been approved. Hope not. It would definitely take away from the small town feel and cause a lot of traffic in a one lane each way town.
