For the last several weeks, I have watched the former location of Kaycee's Pet Parlor on Savannah Avenue transform into a retail store called "Straight from the South." My curiosity got the better of me and I stopped by to check it out. I met co-owner Terry Smith, a native Californian who moved to this area to work for Dixie Outfitters several years ago as an artist creating designs for the T-shirts that they manufacture.
