332 S Main St, Shenandoah, PA 17976 Phone +1 570 462 1263 We don’t claim to know what you are cooking up this week but it is the best grilling conditions of the season so far. The Boys have the Russell ctovetop set up on the big patio on the west side of the building. […]

So, if you want to get technical, today is Independence Day. We know, we know. This is not an excuse to skip the Production Meeting or do anything actually enjoyable on this Heat Dome Holiday. We don’t know precisely what the weather was like in Virginia for their holiday week long ago. We do know […]
