Labor Day weekend

This holiday weekend was quiet in Watonga.  Visitors to the area were looking for something to do. A young couple from Frisco, Texas, came into town on Friday evening and spent Saturday at Roman Nose State Park.  The pool was closed.  They went to the Lodge for lunch but didn't eat there because they were told by an exiting customer that it took more than 45 minutes before that couple's order was taken, even though the restaurant wasn't busy.  The lady at the front desk had no suggestions for another place they could get a bite to eat in Watonga (though the choices in town are limited).  They ended up going to the deli at Applemarket and made themselves a picnic lunch.  While in town, they drove by the Ferguson Museum and called to see if they could get a tour.  They didn't get a call back, and by 5:00 p.m. they were ready to head back to Frisco so they could stop in OKC for dinner, even though they had room reservations to stay over Saturday night.  

On the right side, several people came from out of town to help with the grape harvest out at the Whirlwind Winery vineyards.  Brad and Tanya hosted a lunch for those who helped with the harvest.  It was a fun time. Check back  here for photos ....

At least we had pleasant weather over the weekend.
