On the west side of the highway, muddy, smelly water filled the Village Restaurant more than 5 feet deep on May 2, but at lunchtime Thursday it was brightly lit and filled with the smell of home cooking.
Customers lined up along the buffet for salmon patties, fried chicken, green beans, macaroni and stewed tomatoes, mashed potatoes and strawberry cobbler.
Across the street, though, Allen's Shell Mart sat dark, cordoned off by caution tape. The convenience store has been closed since the flood.
A company was supposed to install new gas pumps this week to replace those ruined by water from the swollen Green River, but owner Linda Allen got word late last week that there will be a delay.
