田舎 means "countryside", not "country".

I also wonder if 雑貨屋 is better translated to "general store" than "grocery".

You will notice that I have already contributed another sentence. :-)

The problem with using "country" is that it's quite ambiguous. It's not incorrect, but neither is it precise. But as you say, CK, that's not a reason to change the sentence. Just something to mention here in comments.
