“Initially all we were going to do was replace the carpet,” said Kris Wedl of the remodeling project recently completed at Good Times Restaurant in Caledonia. “One thing led to another and it just grew from there.”
Dave and Kris Wedl are owners of the popular eatery, and the remodeling was a family affair.
“Lot of family meetings,” recalls Kris. “My husband Dave, son Jeremy Thompson and my daughter’s boyfriend Ryan Stackhouse did the remodeling project.”
