The CVS is closing. January 2; last day. It didn’t burn. But first it had to wait for the town to reopen. Then there was the water problem. Too, it was yellowtagged; though the building itself didn’t burn, the fire burnt trees out back black, and these had to be cleared, before the doors could open. The CVS people did that. Put in all new landscaping.

But corporate, it had set quotas. And the town, reduced from 25,000 people, to something like 2000, these quotas: the Paradise CVS, could not meet. And so, now. It is over.
