“Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfills the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things.” - Winston Churchill

Downtown Conway SC is on the Move.

It's been a while since I last checked in and during that time a lot has been going on in Downtown Conway, SC.  Chestnut Mandolins owner, Jennings Chestnut passed away shortly after being diagnosed with cancer.  Mr. Chestnut was an active member of the downtown business community and will be missed deeply by all those who knew him.  For more about Jennings follow these links:

Chestnut Mandolins….and Banjo and  Jennings Chestnut

As the sign on the door says, Chestnut Mandolins is now closed after it's "Final Day" Saturday.
