You know you have “officially” arrived on the big list when you get a Waffle House.
Sources say construction should begin in the immediate future on a new Waffle House in Headland. It is reported to going to be located on Highway 431 next to O’Reilly’s Auto Parts near County Road 99 intersection.
While Headland might have “arrived”, it will still be the home town where most everyone knows everyone, where people speak to each other on the street, no matter who you are. So the “arrived” will not change the small town family Headland is.
