            There's a new spot downtown to sit a spell and enjoy the day. Well, it's not totally new... In fact, it's quite old.

            But it's got some new landscaping and a bright new picnic bench and an arbor for flowers.

            We're talking about the Old Russian Well located between Cy's Sporting Goods and the Russian Heritage Inn.

            The tiny parcel nestled out of the way in the center of downtown got a facelift recently.

 City Parks and Recreation Director Ian Fulp described the work:

            The history of the well is long and interesting - dating back to the early Russian days:
