Default Oh Yeah

As a kid, we stayed at two pines trailer park in glendale, right across from what is now Townsend's tavern. Back then it was known as Dorothy's and she ran a little convenience store downstairs. Nice older lady, great food, used to give us kids the dickens for hanging around, and then wouldn't take our money for an ice cream cone. Ate there quite a bit with mom & dad.

Later in life, when I was married and had my own kids, we used to go to the Schooner in Lakeport (now C. J. Avery's). Roland and his wife were always there and put on fantastic meals. He would come out and get our kids and take them into the kitchen "to show them the kitchen" and they would come out with a mouthful of something that Roland would give them. ("It's my fault if they don't finish their supper....".

Great idea.
