Roadhouse, Pavillion, Veterans

 Yahoo!!!  The Texas Roadhouse is opening this Monday!!!  They have really been working hard and fast on the project.  The Best Western Hotel, on the other hand, is hoping to open by February.  They started in July of 2019.


The pickleball pavilion is already in use!
Congratulations to all who worked on the project.  Check out the TV screen live coverage!



Still some finishing touches.

Add a little furniture.
and a few flowers
....and let the flags proudly fly!



Wow!  Over 350 veterans and family members attended the Veterans Day luncheon on Nov 11.  The largest attendance on record.


Congratulations to Marion Nelson and the Events Team for another successful event!  They were even entertained by a singing cowboy....on his trusty steed named Dusty!

It was amazing to see a horse just calmly walk through the ballroom and up the ramp to the stage!  

I just happened to be at the trash area and met up with the teacher from the school who collects the clear recycled items.  We chatted for a while.  You will soon get a full posting from him as his project is really fascinating.  He will send me more info.

Congratulations to Jerry and Terri Wellman on their new house.  They have the first two-story residence with a small overhead loft.  It drew quite a crowd yesterday (site 1416 on Moon Rise).

I tried to get a photo through the screened window.
We noticed a new banner at the main entrance welcoming golfers to our course.
Merope Ozdener sent me this great photo of John Ross' balloon taking flight.
Thanks for a great picture!
