So, what’s with the Frote Mu?
Aka, the Frosted Mug, which has served the Forsyth area for
many decades seems to be losing its name as the letters over the main entrance
have begun to disappear. Suspecting that they might be closing, I inquired and
was told, no that there were no plans at the current time by one of their long
term employees. Perhaps the City could take up a collection…..Oh, and did I mention they have a Wifi site that actually works?
Charlie’s Wifi went away! Perhaps to return some other
day.
For years, Charlie’s Ribs Steak and Ale located off Hwy 160
in Forsyth Mo, offered Wifi for any customers who
needed a computer connection while they visited this popular eatery. I often
enjoyed wandering around the internet figuratively while dining there. Then,
one day, I noticed that their wireless connection was no more. A sign of
toughening economic conditions? I don’t know.
The Junction is no more!
Another up and coming venue known as the Junction Bar and
Grill located across from Scooters in Kissee Mills has closed recently. The
last day was Saturday, March 16th when a popular band ‘No Sweat’
played to a ‘packed house’ according to Tony Clements, one of the band members.
Rumor had it that the reason the owner closed the establishment was due to
health concerns. If true, that would be a shame as it served up good food and
cold drinks to a biker friendly crowd. It’s unknown as to whether the business
has plans to re-open in the future.
