It's Coming!




Here’s the late-breaking news currently winding through the fallible neighborhood grapevine: poshness is coming to the boonies.

Lakeside culture doesn’t usually embrace poshness.  We’re sold out to relaxedness here.  And yet even we lake people (notorious for bare feet) have a sprinkling of royalty hiding out somewhere in our genes.  We clean up quite nicely.

New owners have taken over a large restaurant down the road.  Exterior log-look siding, currently being applied, suggests an outdoorsy lake-mood with a hint of swank.   Gossip says bacon-wrapped filet mignons, linen tablecloths, and ballroom dance music are headed our way. 

We’re sold out to swim suits and hamburgers on the grill, and yet this is exciting news.  With official retirement just around the corner, a glass of White Zinfandel with the chef’s special du jour over candlelight, and a waltz, sound like good weekly therapy – and all within walking distance.
