Radio Shack is out of here...

Lending further proof to the notion that technology just can't find a place in Clay County, Hayesville's Radio Shack has gone out of business again.

The shack, which recently posted signs in its windows reading "NOTICE: THIS STORE IS CLOSED," was the second try for the chain in the county. It seems that all businesses need to do to succeed here is become half-Mexican restaurant.

Wires and chips, such a great combination.

Paint is in the Air

It's summer and it's painting time. Two locations on the Square have received paint jobs: Cutworms and Phillips and Lloyd as well as Hayesville Mexican restaurant El Alazan. The locations plan to join the lobby of the Peacock Playhouse in their new coats for a fashionable evening.

Tele Mundo

There's a new reason to go (or not to go) to Monte Alban Mexican Restaurant in Hayesville.... Television.

Three new flat-screen TVs have been put up throughout the restaurant enlivening the experience of eating or destroying precious family time by distracting the innocent.

The flat-screens echo the television setup in the Murphy, NC Monte Alban. Those televisions have been up for more than a year.

Licklog's Lobby

It happened a few weeks ago, so you might have already noticed, but in case you haven't...
The lobby in the Peacock Playhouse is much brighter! All thanks to a new coat of paint of course. Replacing the brown of the original wooden panel walls, the paint gives a whole new feel to the home of the Licklog Players.

A sign of what's to come

Hayesville's Ingles supermarket recently put the finishing touches on a brand new sign, menacing in size compared to the previous one. The new sign points to the renovation that the grocery store is currently undergoing to become big and brand new as well.

Popcorn for women only...

Alright, so it's not technically in Clay County, but Fieldstone Cinemas Six is the closest movie theater you'll find. Therefore, it's news to us that the theater has installed an all-new second concessions stand... Right next to the women's restroom. We're not sure whether there's any advantage to ordering overpriced movie snacks at the new stand versus the old one, but we're just biding our time until the men speak up for closer concessions as well.

Copper Coffee

The coffee shop at the Copper Door has been transformed into additional private dining space for the fanciest restaurant in Hayesville. The staff of the Copper Door say that they still make and provide the drinks at request, but that the management is hoping to open up a new coffee shop on the square to replace the lost space.
