Shhh ... it's a secret

Ben Gonzales -- of Goltl Plaster, Dry Wall and Stucco of McCook, Nebraska -- attaches the wire mesh that will hold new stucco on the front of the former Ben Franklin store in downtown McCook Tuesday morning. Gonzales planned to a apply the stucco's "scratch coat" during the day, while late-winter temperatures crept into the 80s. The former general store is owned by Mike Deveny of McCook, who chuckled when he said he's "not quite ready" to reveal his plans for the interior of the structure. "Right now, I'm beautifying downtown for the people of McCook," he said.
