Do
you have heart? A lot of folks do! We are seeing these hearts in
random locations throughout Lincoln and wanted to share. Our
favorite is the top picture here because they are not just hearts;
they show heartfelt appreciation for those on the front lines.
The center Heart says, "Thank you!" Then the hearts surrounding it
name people for which the folks inside are thankful for - emergency
workers, food providers, delivery drivers, mail carriers, the health
department, medical workers, and law enforcement.
A very good point to remember, they do their jobs because their jobs
contribute to the well being of the rest of us.
What an inspiration, and we are sure that those front line people
appreciate the sentiment!

SATURDAY EVENING COVID-19 UPDATES

COMMUNITY: WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER! |

Kathie & Jim Williams |
Downtown businesses look
forward to seeing you all again very soon!
In February, the Lincoln Downtown Express business group
began wearing their "I [heart = love] Downtown Lincoln"
t-shirts on Fridays. It was a way to show the community that
they love where they work and do business and are striving
to keep the downtown area strong.
Now ending our first ordered “stay home" week, many of those
downtown business doors are locked, but orders can still be
filled by call in.
All the owners and workers still have great heart for our
city and are missing having their stores open and seeing
customers.
Several took pictures on Friday wearing their shirts to
remind everyone that they have a great deal of hope for the
future and are looking forward to the day customers can come
in again.
Eileen Mullins at Sir Renna Tea had to close her gift shop
and tea room, but if you are hankerin' for a bubble tea or
one her excellent chicken salad sandwiches, give her a call
and she'll meet you at the front door with your order in
hand.
The same is true with Ethan Hoinacki at Guest House. Those
who can't live without his unique brews don't have to. Call
in your order, and he will meet you at the door.
Jim and Kathie Williams at Small Town Creations are closed.
They have been working on some sprucing up at the shop in
the middle room, and Kathie is going in on a regular basis
to check on things and do some work. Give her a call if you
need some beans to brew at home. She'll make it happen.
In the meantime, she has a message for all of us. "Small
Town Creations misses everyone and can’t wait to see you
soon! Hope isn't canceled!! We WILL be back!!"
