Murfreesboro is again home to an all-vegan restaurant. (It’s been a few years but there was one downtown in the late ’90s/early ’00s. It was before its time and didn’t last long. But I digress.)

The restaurant opened at 2314 Medical Center Pkwy. in mid-April to positive reviews for its plant-based menu.

For more information, find Juicy’s Wellness Cafe on Facebook.

Murfreesboro Ghost Tours

It may not be Halloween, but, in my opinion, it’s always time for a ghost story.

John McKinney must agree, because Paratreks starts giving historical ghost tours of downtown Murfreesboro on Friday, May 3.

The monthly tours are given by “Experienced Certified Paranormal Investigators,” McKinney said.

The hosts will guide groups on a 90-minute tour of downtown, providing a mixture of folk tales, history and ghost stories.

“Hear the entertaining tales gathered from spirited locals about downtown and the surrounding area. Find out about fun and interesting history that you won’t hear anywhere else. See the locations and hear stories about former residents of Murfreesboro that remained behind and are still haunting buildings, restaurants and more,” McKinney said.

The tours are given on the first Friday of the month, rain or shine. All participants must pre-purchase tickets at paratreks.com. Cost is $10. Be prepared to walk.

The retail apocalypse continues to claim the lives of once-loved, well-known names. This month it’s Fred’s.

Selling off its pharmacy division (and inadvertently killing Reeves-Sain Drug Store) wasn’t enough to save the discount retail chain; in mid-April it was announced that 159 locations will be closed. This included the location at 1664 Middle Tennessee Blvd., the Memphis-based store announced. Other mid-state locations slated for liquidation are in Gallatin, Lebanon and Woodbury.
___

Just a few days after National Record Store Day, a day to celebrate the culture of the independently owned record store, Waxface Records announced it was closing for good. No reason was given but everything was for sale, even the posters on the walls.
