I have come to appreciate the Burns-Hines area quite a bit. The town does have a lot of empty stores or they are less modern then you might expect, but the town could be making a comeback. At least I think it might.
Most of the businesses are on this main Burns street. Go a couple miles towards Hines and there’s a group of big box stores where I do my shopping. The area right between Burns and Hines seems to be where all the business activity is now. In downtown though, there are a couple healthy businesses.
After doing my shopping, it’s back to the RV park in Hines. I like sitting in the shade like an old dude, conversing with my peers, enjoying the weather.
