Despite many Gardner-Webb students going home for the holiday, the Snack Shop - located across the street from campus - was packed.Kim Francis, one of the waitresses, said the quick-order restaurant is open every Thanksgiving for breakfast but closes at 11 a.m. There had been a steady stream of college students and families throughout the busy morning, she said.
As far as her own Thanksgiving plans, she said she sometimes cooks but this year would be visiting family and eating at their home later in the day.
John Kohler, of Lattimore, Tony Disanti, of Blowing Rock, and their family were just some of the Snack Shop's many customers.
Kohler said he was thankful this year for good health.
"... And my beautiful wife," he added as his wife Dyna approached.
Disanti said he was also thankful for his own beautiful wife and that the Democrats did so well in the recent election. The rest of the family seconded that.
