When I wrote this post I should have written the following:

When Spanish Springs Town Square was the "hub" for everything in TV the Sales Office was magnificent and they had the nicest cafeteria where the sales people would sit and have coffee and talk with you, and anyone and everyone coming through or living in TV at that time could come into the cafeteria and get a coffee and muffin. Now there are other places in SS for morning coffee.

Then when LSL became the "hub" they built an incredible building with an interior much like a Gentlemen's Club which was the Sales Office, and they had a coffee shop which was delightful, very elegant with wait staff. Now Panera's has taken over that building and it's still a great place to drop in for coffee etc.

What have they, are they, doing in Brownwood? Is there a Sales Office there, what is the draw for just coming through the square. A good coffee shop would bring people in from walking, running or whatever, to sit and have a morning coffee. Sounds like a great opportunity for an entrepreneur.

But, having watched how the family operate over the past few years, I have to believe they have something in mind for Brownwood.
