IT'S BEEN A WONDERFUL YEAR!!!!

We must say the year has really sped by. Not sure where the time has gone. We started with a wonderful grand opening January 17, 2009 with the wonderful Peavine Pickers and it just seemed to be a whirlwind of activity since. We had 2 ATV rides in 2009 and both were a lot of fun! We had a great baseball game with Belmont and they now want revenge. We had horseshoe tournaments that were a blast. Our Halloween Party was fun and the costumes were great. For Thanksgiving we put on a great dinner and served about 20 people. What a nice Thanksgiving it was.
Now it is time for Santa so John and I went out to get a tree to put up in the bar. I wanted a good sized full tree. We didn't want to take up the dance floor area with a tree so the room with the pool table was the place. We had to put a tarp around it and tie it up and it took 4 guys to get it into the building.
What do you think? Good sized, full tree, huh?

Now we are about to start a new year. We will be ending 2009 with a New Year's Eve party with lots of food and beverage to ring out the old and bring in the new. Everyone is invited to help us celebrate the close of our 1st year in the bar and motel.
Saturday, January 2, 2010 will be the first winter ATV ride. Grab your heavy coat and ear muffs because we are going to have a "cool" ride indeed. There will be a couple warming stations (those snowmobile riders have nothing on us) where you can warm yourself at a fire and have  hot buttered rum to help the warming process. After the ride we'll have a steak dinner and then, of course, we'll have a little party. There will be drawings for some cool atv stuff too. $10.00 gets you a place in the ride and dinner. We're asking that you call us to get on our list so we know how many to plan for. Check back in for more pictures of the actual road we'll be riding. See if you can recognize where we'll be riding.....
The Manhattan bowling leage is starting January 9, 2010. We are still looking for more people to participate. Other nights are also available if anyone is looking to have a league of their own. Just like the real bowling alleys.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
