For the restaurant, located across the street from Nashville's minor league baseball stadium that sees big crowds in the summer, both inflation and the worker shortage have sent costs skyrocketing. Small businesses that depend on summer crowds and tourism are hoping for a bustling summer this year, boosted by pent up demand after more than two years of the pandemic. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey)
