Most likely in my humble opinion, the Lowe's-Gilford will not be suffering the same fate as the Lowe's-Manchester. Today's Union Leader has a headline article
http://www.unionleader.com/article/2...WS02/710179959 on the closing of the Lowe's down in Manchester. It just seems to me that the deep strength of the lakes region's home maintenance, repairs, up-grades, and remodeling will keep the Lowe's-Gilford open and operating as a very happy store.
The Gilford Lowe's is an incredibly good store for a long list of reasons that includes their freebie coffee in a cheapie foam cup, and I would truly hate to ever see it get closed down. Three cheers for the Lowe's in Gilford!
