Truck traffic is overtaking the city of Williston -- so finding a place for them to rest is key...and a new such spot will come online later in the year.  Love's Travel Stop is coming to Williston.  Plans call for the construction of the 10-thousand square foot stop on Williston's north side.  It will feature a tire care center as well as a fast food chain restaurant.  Construction is to start this spring.  Love's is based out of Oklahoma.

A business that had closed up shop in Mohall has been reborn again -- thanks to a couple that is new to the Renville County area.  Tom Callaway and his wife have opened Dad's Restaurant...and the Tavern is opening soon as well.  Dad's had been closed limiting the options in Mohall -- so the Callaways acquired the business and are ready to go with 10 employees...and looking for more now too.

(Tom Callaway - New Owners) "And we decided at that time it would be best to get a restaurant here in town that will accommodate everybody -- kids, families, and the single guys or women who might come out to dinner with a group of people.  We can handle small and large parties."

They have done some remodeling -- expanding the size of the business so they can indeed handle rush of hungry and thirsty customers.  With Business Beat, I'm Perry Olson.
