There a couple of things about town that might be of interest to our online readers.The Coffee Shop in Marion is getting a facelift. Owners Bill and Kory Wheeler have purchased the building from their previous landlord, James T. Hatfield, and the couple is now sprucing up the place. The downtown Main Street restaurant is closed during remodeling. We'll have some updates and more photos in the next couple of days. In the meantime, the Wheeler's other restaurant on the south side of town, The Front Porch, is open for business. They invite everyone to visit there while the Coffee Shop is being updated.
Noticed some surveying going on north of downtown on Sturgis Road Tuesday. J&J Surveying was shooting lines in the old hitching lot next to the former Druther's restaurant, now Cozy Hearth. Don't know for sure, but I'd bet that's where Dollar General is going now that Farmers Bank has bought the thrift store's building on Main Street.
