Roots Café The first thing you may wonder when you enter Roots, is if it’s a restaurant or a juice bar. It has the look of both with its food, fresh-pressed juices, smoothies, and gourmet coffees.

Fall Fishing is the Best—Now is the Time to Enjoy a Quiet Day on the Water

October 23, 2017 by Dan Potts Leave a Comment
