Springfield shop closure sends owners back on the road

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (CAPITOL CITY NOW) – The closure of a downtown Springfield antique shop is really about a change of seasons for the couple that owned it. “They’ve been there for sixteen years, right next to Wild Rose,” said Springfield Business Journal executive editor Michelle Ownbey of Abe’s Old Hat, “and the owners, Mike and Trudy Naylor, said that they’re not retiring from the antiques business; it’s more of a full-circle transition, if you will.”

A reliable home charger matters even more once winter driving becomes part of the equation.”
