Change is inevitable and it's happening all around us. Usually change is to better a situation, better a city or better a business that may be struggling. Sometimes changes happens right in front of your eyes and you don't even realize it.

If you were to do a quick drive by, you'd be even more shocked to find out that Dragon wall is physically not there anymore. 2025 E 2nd St in Casper is the address, if you're wondering that's on the southeast corner of 2nd & Beverly.

I've lived in Casper for nearly a year now and always found it odd that there were only a handful of Chinese restaurants in town and two of them were right across the street from each other. Usually when I order for pickup, it's always Chopstix that I choose. I always was going go pull into Drag Wall and eat there...then I noticed that it was just a building that was being worked on.

Everyone's schedules are full and busy and we may not all drive through this intersection on a daily basis, but last week I was shocked that I didn't notice a HUGE difference.

I feel that I'm a pretty observant person, but it seems this happened overnight. What was once Dragon Wall Chinese Buffet Restaurant, is NOW an Nova Health Urgent Care.

In this particular situation, "IT", is at 2nd St and Beverly in Casper.
