Taffy. Popcorn. Souvenirs. Beach necessities. 

When Maureen Hamilton opened her new store in Ormond-by-the-Sea, she had her customers in mind. Her store, Thinking of You, opened last week at 1644 Ocean Shore Blvd. Open Wednesday through Monday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., and closed Tuesdays, the store is named after her last business, but Hamilton is hoping to cater to beachgoers this time around.

At her first store in New York, Hamilton sold upscale children’s clothes. When Hamilton began her first Thinking of You store in 1996 as a gift shop in Gainesville, she wrapped every item purchased. However, she decided in 2016 that it was time for a change of scenery and moved to Ormond where discovered she could work within close distance of the beach.
