It has been almost 3 weeks since a local bank went under, our bank, the bank that Buddy built. Community concern is palpable, but I haven't ventured inside yet, dreading to see new faces.
Unlike the movies, there was not a run on the bank, and apparently a 'seamless' transition took place, but it is just not the same.
