GREAT FOOD & GOOD FUN TO
onny Selman, currently a supervisor for Evergreen Resources, his wife Shaunie, and their two sons, Mitchell 18 and Kody 14 moved to Trinidad from Seminole, 
Texas where Donny was a production foreman for Citation Oil & Gas, and Shaunie worked for Joe McGill and K& S Steak Place. Their partners, Chris Eissler, originally from New York, his wife Amy, and their two sons, Kieran 5, & Quinton 3, are not new to the restaurant business. They were partners in the Elm Street Station, and recently sold the Grapevine Restaurant in Raton, as well as the Villa Napoli in Trinidad. Later, they renamed the Elm Street Station to Mulligans Pub-n-Grub, to claim a sports bar theme. The restaurant opened in mid-December under the Elm Street Station name before it officially became Mulligans in March.

"Together we created a nice mix of New York class and Texas charm," says partner, Shaunie Selman. "We offer a wide variety of food including burgers, made from 100% Black Angus beef to cuts of prime rib, steak, lobster, shrimp, ribs, chicken, salads, sandwiches, a large selection of appetizers, soups, and a tasty selection of desserts. We have a full bar, with over 20 varieties of beer."

HUNTERS PARADISE
ock, Stock & Barrel is one of the newest businesses in Walsenburg. Opening just last October, it features a full-service gunsmithing shop.
Owned and operated by David Doane, a recent graduate of TSJC Gunsmithing School, and Mary Wright, it also has a small retail area that caters to the gun enthusiast. David is also equipped to make custom barrels as well as bluing, repairs, restorations and custom guns. After retiring from 21 years in the Army, having been in Special Forces, the 82nd Airborne and also the Rangers, David wanted to move back to the West. Albuquerque was the place he most called home since his dad, who was also in the Army, was stationed there in the 70's. Fate seemed to play a role in the couple ending up in Walsenburg.

 

 

They found property for sale, fell in love with the area and decided it was the place for them. David discovered the gunsmithing school and enrolled January of '97. "We love the area and how friendly the people are. Being a good hunting area, we hoped to bring a service to the community that would be welcomed," says Mary. "We're small now but hope to grow to provide our customers with the products and services they require."

Lock, Stock & Barrel is located at the southernmost exit of I-25 in Walsenburg.
