The Lodge - Greenwood


We tried checking out a Canadian bar in Greenwood for din din on a recent evening.  Unfortunately the kitchen was closed that day so we gave The Lodge, half a block away, a shot.  While they had an extensive tap list, it suffered from the same heavy case of the IPA/pale ale-itis that's typically of many Emerald City establishments.  Despite that, the service was very lovely and the food entirely decent.  Spacious with an interesting decor along with fabulous fixtures in the bathrooms.  The prices prevent it from being much of a value so we'll likely not return.  Not bad for a one and done, however.  



Birthdays!

As both our loyal readers know, summer time is birthday time at the Ranch.  It's always a festive occasion with banners, hats and baked goods as both KS and KW celebrate their respective big days during the summer.  While their getting older is a cause of some concern for City Boy, both days were joyous affairs. 


Lake Wenatchee Camping '19

Country Girl, the Ranch Dogs and City Boy all made it back to Lake Wenatchee this summer for another camping extravaganza.  We enjoyed lovely weather most days with sunny days, little wind and not too much bother from mozzies.  Country Girl's camp cooking skilz are still proper and we were also fortunate to enjoy camp fires this time as well.  The last two trips coincided with burn bans so our good luck this trip was very well enjoyed.  Rain did greet us on the last morning, which made packing up camp a bit of ordeal.  Still a brilliant trip all in all and we'll def stay an additional night next time.
