Anderson, SC

I finally had the chance to eat at Gail's Diner at 2105 S Main in Anderson. Looking a the menu, it appears that some of the best deals are for breakfast.

But I decided on a cheeseburger plate. The burgers are hand made, not some frozen patties! And I got mine to go but the amount of french fries and slaw that came with it was alot. The box was stuffed. A great deal for the money.

So if you are looking for a good place to eat that is locally owned and operated, please check out Gail's. Great food at a great price, prepared by great people!

We all love where we live and we all want to see improvements in our neighborhoods. If you would like to speak your mind and let the city hear your opinions about improving your neighborhood, there are several meeting scheduled. The Anderson City Council hired planners to help come up with a plan to improve neighborhoods and find ways to provide affordable housing to residents.

There will be public meetings starting Tuesday at the Anderson County Alternative School on E Whitner at 6pm. Another meeting is scheduled for April 14th at Taylor Memorial Pentecostal at 711 Glenn St at 630PM. The 3rd meeting is at 6PM on April 16th at the Hanna-Westside Extension Campus on S McDuffie.

Everyone is invited to attend. City officials say this is an attempt to find out what residents believe needs to done to revitalize their community. I think it is a great chance to speak your mind. If you just sit at home and do not get involved, then you are missing a chance to speak your mind. But now we have a chance to get involved in improving our community. For more information, residents can call Erin Hall at 864-231-2229.

East-West Connector receives $7.65 million green light

The fate of the East-West Connector has finally been decided after a long long time. The 3-mile, three-lane road was one of five projects in the 3rd Congressional District to receive a portion of $150 million in federal stimulus money going to local road projects through the South Carolina Department of Transportation. So it would seem that the stimulus money will actually get spent right here in Anderson.

I am sure some people are happy and others are not. Especially anybody that is either losing part of their property for the road, or going to have it pass by their home. But maybe it will help traffic on the curvy and narrow Brown, Concord and Reed roads. I hate going home down Brown road because of the way traffic gets backed up at the 3 way stop sign at King's Rd.
