Friday’s musing:

I do believe I have gain 10 pounds sourcing and doing the window display this week . You would think I would have sweated off 10.

I blame the following:

Almont Bakery, their Apple Bread along a “cup of ambition” started my mornings off right.

Maria’s restaurant for their delicious soups at Lunchtime. My tummy was happy.

Since Jayne and I finished up near 4pm , I had no more “ambition” so as soon as Senor Victors opened , I called in for their delicious Chicken Fajitas for dinner.

And in between we had apples, donuts and c***r from Brookwood Fruit Farm!

Gee, that added to my waistline but oh sooo worth it.

Support your small town business and your tummy will thank you.

You never know where you will find history!

While Picking up dinner at Senor Victors and Manager, Andrea Hartman shows us an old menu from the Huddle bar!

Look at those prices! 80 cents for a b**r!? I may have partaken back in the day when they sponsored our Softball team.

The menu was found behind some shelving. Thanks Andrea for sharing this piece of nostalgia with us.

Do you remember when Senor Victors was Huddle bar? We are so appreciative of the memories. Funny how it’s kind of a full circle moment for that grand old building. It is still the place to go before after the big games. Go Raiders!

Now excuse me while I eat my burrito! Yummy!

P.S. If you are a cocktail connoisseur they have a special drink called Juan Almonte, try it!

After we changed out the Museum windows display, we took a drive to pick up some c***r and apples from our business sponsors, Brookwood Fruit Farm. The colors are changing on the back roads already. We have such beautiful scenery at our doorsteps!

We love it when creative members of the community volunteer. Check out Jayme’s vintage Halloween costumes and decorations in our North window!
She did a phenomenal job , didn’t she? Thank you Jayme!

The South window features long time Museum supporters: Brookwood Fruit Farm. The generational farm has been a part of Almont history since its founding . In fact, the town was once known as Bristol ! The Farm is now run by Will Bristol with his Father, Charles who is still involved with much of the daily operations. Located on Bordman road, their farm offers many varieties of Apples, Pears and Cherries. They also have many “pick your own” options —-so bring the kids and experience an old fashioned day at the farm . Support a local business!

Once you are home show the kids how to make an Apple pie! Enjoy some of their c***r too!

And don’t forget to bring a sample of that pie for us to try , any Saturday 1-4pm!!

A thanks of appreciation to Will Bristol for loaning the vintage Orchard sign, photographs and related items ; museum volunteer Carolyn Rayl for loan of apple decorations ; museum volunteer Lynn Nolin for decorating the South window. Jayme F. For supplying, designing and decorating the north window . To Alicia Joly (Found in the Mitten store owner) for loan of vintage Halloween decor and items. And last but not least to Pat Spencer, our Historical Society’s President for waiting so patiently as we had some fun designing the windows.

Step inside to learn more about Almont, our beginnings, our residents, our traditions, our entrepreneurs , our rich agricultural history and more. Open Saturdays 1-4pm. Hope to see you there!

Some of you may remember our display of Voyagers costumes and accessories and Colonial Chocolate event this past year, well this is the organization that helped us with those programs.

We had a wonderful visit today from these Harley riding Veterans from St Clair Shores.
Left to right Dale and Gary (Army) Helms, Charlie Lasada (Navy) and Randy Johnston (Air Force) .

The Gentlemen stopped in to check us out and we were able to share the story of our very own Dr Addison R Stone who served our Nation during the Civil War and the sad tale of Walter Smith who died while at the Boot Camp from the Spanish Flu . He was waiting to be transported to Europe during WW1. Stop in and learn more about these men and other Almonters any Saturday , from 1-4pm . See you soon!
