Beech Grove/Roseland
For several weeks now crews have been working to complete the latest addition to the nTelos Wireless network in Nelson County. The latest site in Beech Grove near the intersection of 664 & 151 should be completed and active soon. nTelos has been on an aggressive plan to add additional sites to the already established ones.

The most recent site was put up in February 2009 along Route 151 just across from the Rockfish Presbyterian Church. Two additional sites are on the mountain at Wintergreen, one overlooking the Rockfish Valley, another on Devils Knob. Other sites are already scattered across other portions of the county.

The new Beech Grove location will provide regular cellular service in additon to enhanced data services for aircards and smartphones.

Roseland
Nelson County, Virginia

A little over a year ago we told you about the opening of The Java Depot. Sadly today, we tell you about it’s closing. Owners Richard Boyd and Nancy Kern are calling it quits. The old reassembled Arrington Depot has housed two breakfast style restaurants to date. Sparrows Cafe was the first to occupy the building, opening in May of 2008. Less than a year later they closed. The 1870’s depot was moved from Arrington and reassembled in December 2007 by property owner Steve Crandall.

People packed Java Depot Sunday evening to bid farewell to Nancy and Richard after a little more than a year operating the restaurant.

“It’s been a great and fun ride,” Richard told us Sunday evening. “Though I will miss the people coming by, it will be nice to sleep in a bit,” he laughs. Nancy and Richard are actively seeking a buyer for the restaurant, hoping they will actually be able to return as customers in the near future.

Editor’s Note:
“Nancy & Richard, we thank you both for putting your heart and soul in this business. We thank you for the special attention you gave helping out with Junior Publisher, Adam, all of these months, day in day out. We will miss seeing you, but hope you get to return as customers soon!. Best wishes!” NCL.
