Did that coffee shop just move?

fluxscapemodLadies and Gentleman, your mods have decided it's time to start noticing how off this place can be. Nothing too major, but hopefully somewhat exciting.
We have need of people noticing strange things happening in Beachville, such as:
Any attempt to walk past the border of Beachville (and there is a lovely Now Leaving Beachville! sign at the edge of town) will result in people finding themselves outside the Info Booth with Jerry watching them very carefully. Try as often as you want, but it'll happen every time. Not only that, but it won't even happen at the same point. Sometimes, you won't even make it to the sign before you're back with Jerry. You'll get within viewing distance of that lovely departure sign, only to almost walk right into the info booth.
Or! You'll get a few feet past it, probably to the point of even hearing construction nearby, only to once again almost walk into the information booth.
We need someone (or a couple someones) to explore the town enough to discover there's actually no town dump. There are garbage trucks, and people really do try hard to keep Beachville clean, but there's nowhere to actually take the trash. Odd, right? Following the garbage trucks will in fact result in having them just vanish. Whether that's right before your eyes, or when it rounds a corner, it's just gone.
So is the trash, sure...but...vanishing garbage trucks are weird, right?
Another possible thing to notice; That cafe you like getting your morning coffee at? The one that isn't Starkbucks? It's in a different location now. Though, according to the people working inside, it's always been there. No, they haven't moved recently. Which is probably a touch unsettling.
And if they haven't moved location, then the interior certainly has changed overnight. One minute, it's a loving nod to farm kitchens everywhere. The next? It's an internet cafe, complete with coffee and food.
What's going on here? It's probably a good time to start thinking about that, huh?
Enjoy! Start plotting! Let's have some mysteries poked at, shall we? (There's no guarantee mysteries will be solved, but let's have some fun anyway.)
