A groundbreaking day

A year to the day (March 4 )after a fire destroyed the Sagebrush Cantina and four other storefronts in the village, a crowd gathered for an groundbreaking for a brand new $2.3 million two story restaurant. Depending on the weather, construction could start as soon as the end of the month.
