i dont think so. thomas and jolene lost it or sold it. they severed all ties here i think. after robbery at store and at house i think they had enough. and were so far in debt with store. long story...

not sure how he lost the lease. unless no payments made

I saw thomas over xmas. confusing......jolene told someone they were divorced.....beats me!!!!

I really don't know either. I heard someone mention these people names last night. But it could well have been a rehash of old news.

you dont own the building you just lease for ever if you want. Thomas and jolene sold it for a ridiculous amount. and i think what they are asking now is way high. again you need capital to throw away or invest. needs an exorcism....

The land is owned by a man named Ruben. I don't know his last name but he lives right there close by and races horses. He often grazes them on the field behind Chicken Charlies.

Thanks Bob. I will definately want to talk to him. I know the sale price was pretty high. I wonder what his monthly lease was ? I wonder how long the current owner had the place ?
