The down town area now is beginning to look like a third world slum. rotted and crumbling closed motels, closed stores, broken windows and a closed downtown gas station.
And of course, there was trouble because of their prayer times, and this little town now has a storefront mosque.
Oh no! Not Noel! I loved that place. I didn’t know that all this had happened. Such a beautiful area.
