With Gratitude, We Say Goodbye

After 36 wonderful years, it is with a very full heart that we announce that our restaurant is now officially closed.

For more than three decades, you welcomed us into your lives, shared countless meals and celebrations with us, and made our restaurant a part of this community. We are incredibly grateful for every visit, every conversation, every birthday, anniversary, family dinner, and special memory you shared with us.

What began as a business became so much more because of you—our customers, friends, neighbors, and community.

Thank you for allowing us to serve you for 36 unforgettable years. We will always cherish the memories and the people who made this journey so special.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Thank you for 36 amazing years.

We will miss you dearly.

For the first time on record, regular cannabis usage has surpassed cigarette use in the U.S., according to a new Gallup poll. Marijuana use has increased dramatically over the past half-century and is currently the highest Gallup has ever recorded.

The Trump administration has effectively shut down most of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's activities, closing the spigot on federal funding estimated to have saved thousands of lives and billions of dollars over the past 27 years by improving medical practice.

I'm about 2/3 of the way through season 2, and I'm struggling to find a connection to the story and the people.

They're 70,000 light years from home, but they never seem to be getting any closer. Each episode, they seem to be fumbling around the entire time until the last 5 minutes.

I don't really know anyone's backstory. Janeway has a partner and a dog. Harry has a girlfriend. Tom hates his father. And that's about it.

There were a couple of episodes that grabbed me and made me think, "Oh, now I get it." But then the next episode comes along and it goes back to the same old same old.

So, is it just me? Am I missing something, or is Voyager missing something?

Let's say I'm a newly commissioned ensign with a wife and a baby back on Earth that I want to see again. Which captains will give me the best (and worst) odds of surviving long enough to do that?

My wife and I were walking down Main Street this evening for the first time in a while and were surprised by how vibrant it seems again. So many awesome-looking restaurants to choose from! What are your favorites?
