Most store along the route are your typical chain stores-- the Traveler must've passed 50 Dunkin Donuts so far today--Then there are businesses like "Maids, Inc" and "Only Lacrosse Supplies" that remind him that this is not your typical middle class America.

Some stores are a bit on the arrogant side . One store claims to be the "Biggest Dairy Store in America" (It's basically just a supermarket) A place called Rawleys claims to be serve the "Voted best Hot Dogs in America" (the Traveler looks it up... one list puts it at #7) He's tempted to give it a try and make his judgement but, nah... just can't get excited about a hot dog...

In Norwalk he comes across another "town green", now a park in the middle of town where he finds a nice spot to pull out his guitar...
