It's going to be the first of 26 Wahlburgers restaurants to open since the agreement between the grocery store chain and the famed brothers, Mark, Donnie and Paul Wahlberg. May 22nd at the Mall of America, it becomes reality.

Schweich's Bar and Hotel in Kenyon has closed their doors. The Kenyon Leader article said the doors were locked and that workers were removing perishable items from the building on Monday.

It's an almost certainty that Toys R Us will be history. The chain plans to honor gift cards for the next 30 days. But the recomendation is that you go use it as soon as possible.

Owner Jeff Westad says the restaurant will close because it cannot compete with the cheaper pizza chains. Basilleo's put's out a quality, fresh ingredient pizza. But you pay more for quality. Around $15 to $20 per pizza. And many people can't afford that. And there are just too many other cheaper pizza choices in Faribault.

Imagine all of the changes that have taken place in the area of highways 3 and 21 in Faribault in 79 years. Kuntze's trees has seen them from their spot. This year might be the last call.
