HOT OFF THE GRILL Earleen Hinton/Shaw Media
The grill was hot Saturday as hungry people stopped by the Shaw MarketPlace grill in Prophetstown for lunch. Store owner Bob Hatheway and his son, Ryan, did the grilling while Jill and Abby worked the front counter. The menu included pork chops, chicken breasts, bratwurst, hamburgers, Italian sausage and hot dogs. The grill will be closed for the next two weeks so the Hatheways can attend a family reunion.
