The Mole Report
The Big Race is ON!








The 92127 Mole has always been consistent on his reports. We recently became concerned when we had not heard from him in a while.  I learned from another source there is a new Nordstrom' Rack Department Store going in near the In and Out Burger Restaurant in Carmel Mountain. The mole's only response was, "C'mon, boss, that's 92128".  He sounded like a mob guy the way he said it.
I then pressed him about the big race occurring in 92127. I asked him, "Will it be ice cream or beer first?" He pushed down his gold colored Oakley sunglasses on his long angular nose and looked over them to see me eye to eye. "So you knows about that". I told Mole, "drop the Jersey Shtick...... You are from La Mesa".  Mole tried to explain it is all part of his cover.
Two new local businesses are going into 4S Ranch Commons. Karl Strauss Brewery is moving into the old "Chili's" and 31Flavors Ice Cream Shop is moving in two doors down from our new Community Hub (TM).
It is causing a bit of drama in our house. Our kids love ice cream but I'm pulling for Karl Strauss. Something about outdoor patio, cold beer and live sports. Special shout out to Jim Baker of Baker booths. He built Strauss' restaurant booths as well as ours.  He is the best! If you need custom restaurant booths give Jim a call at 619 284-6094.  Tell him we sent you!
We'll keep the 92127 Mole on it. He has been told to get some photos from inside both the Strauss and 31 Flavors. Send us an email which one you would like to see open first and why. In the meantime the Mole's closing words were, "You knows, I saw Dave Allen, Rick King and Ed Whitty already trying to reserve one of Baker's booths. They said they wanted one close to the beer tap. Just a little more info for ya boss....". I think the Mole is just trying to keep his job.
