WEDNESDAY (RAIN RAIN) DAILY

THIS CONVENIENCE STORE ON CORNER OF SOUTH JONES AND WEST PLATT CLOSED APRIL 30TH AND THE BUILDING IS FOR SALE.   LAST YEAR,  THE
RIGHT SECTION WAS USED FOR SEVERAL MONTHS FOR  A "CHESTER
CHICKEN" RESTAURANT AND CLOSED.   I HEARD BUILDING HAS BEEN SOLD.
CURRENT OWNERS SAID IT WOULD NEVER BE A CONVENIENCE STORE AGAIN WHEN CONTACTED LAST WEEK.   SO...EVERYONE IS WONDERING.   IT IS A VERY GOOD BUSY CORNER IN MAQUOKETA.

CASEL CONCRETE IN MAQUOKETA (OWNED BY FRIEND  CASEY CASEL) IN APRIL PUT A NEW CONCRETE DRIVE WAY AT THIS FORMER
CARRIAGE HOUSE ON WEST LOCUST IN MAQUOKETA.     I STOPPED BY
TO TALK TO CASEY AND TOOK THIS PHOTO.  NEAT BUILDING.   MANY
YEARS AGO THERE  WERE A FEW OTHERS LIKE IT IN TOWN.    IF THOSE
WALLS COULD TALK!

MAQUOKETA CARDINALS, 8 TO 0.    MAQUOKETA'S RECORD IS NOW
