Coffee Row Chronicles: “Wells, Goodwill, and Christmas Cove”
The smell of sizzling bacon drifts through the Gull Lake Diner, mingling with the rich aroma of fresh coffee. Mugs clink and the low hum of conversation weaves between the clatter of forks and the scrape of chairs on the checkered linoleum. Outside, a dusting of snow glows under the morning sun, but inside it’s all warmth and familiarity. Hank sits in his usual spot, stoic as ever.

In that video, the theatre, its volunteers, and several local residents are spoken about in ways that are unfair, inaccurate, and unworthy of the place we call home.
