Peanut Buckets Coming to DAWGTOWN

I'd think California would become a desirable location with those new dorms going in and the Walmart Neighborhood Market

Looked today on my way into town. The spot I was thinking about is closer to Farmerville Hwy on the South side of the interstate.

Thanks. What are they doing with the old location?

Seems like just yesterday when it was built.

...Or tear down a couple of those old beat up gas stations, etc... Those eyesores on Tech Drive need to go.

I've not asked. Don't know of they have a plan yet. Not sure if the dealer owns the current building or not.

The previous owners, out of Monroe, own the current Courtesy bldg. The lease is running out and the utilities are very high so the current owners opted for new. Plus GM likes new.

DQ corporate will not let any DQ have the Texas menu unless it borders Texas, such as Shreveport. Even then you have to really convince them of it. There are several items I would like to have from the Texas menu. I got one item from that menu and it is the steak finger.

By the way we should be pouring the slab Monday or Tuesday, weather permitting, on my Ruston location on Cooktown road.

I gave you some money at the new Monroe location.

Agree. Id like to see a developer come in and revamp that entire area.

As long as they sell the DQ "Blizzard", that's ALL you need to care about. ;)

Yes, a few years back I was in Washington State and asked for a DQ Dude. They had no idea what it was.

If you were in San Antonio (or San Francisco) and asked for one, you may not have gotten what you wanted!

As an aside there is a guy from Dequincy who posts here fairly regularly, DQ Dog. I thought he meant Dairy Queen for years.
