This photo from around 1900, shows the Manderville Dry Goods store, built in 1896 and just to the north was the Sunset Grocery. Today the Eagle's Nest occupies both sides of the building. Note that what is now 2nd Ave. was a dirt street.
This is the inside of 135 N 2nd around the 1930's when it was Detweiller's Harness Shop.
Marion & Jolene were the artists/owners of the Eagle's Nest for 30 years. Marion is of Choctaw descent and has been doing various art work most of his life. He occasionally appeared in Western movies & commercials. Jolene taught school for many years & started painting only upon opening the shop, but has collected a few awards.
