No, not a blue hair special. Our family likes to get up with the sunrise and get in a nice run or swim or anything else that allows us to inhale the quiet lake air and listen to the birds. We never drink and drive so when we have a nice bottle of wine it is usually from the wine cellar at home. If we have a designated driver then some of us may indulge at the restaurant. I am sure that this is not helpful to the profit margins of the restaurants but we do live the life we love.
I make my living suggesting to troubled companies how to improve image and profit margin and usually tax problems. So far, every company which has taken my advice has rebounded nicely. In my career I have had two which didn't take my advice and they have since gone out of business. My first job was waiting tables. I have found most of the servers at Sinclair's to be very pleasant. If someone is not, I usually find that asking with kindness if they have had a bad day makes them understand I care about them as fellow human beings and they respond with kindness. I have also found in my career and in life that criticism is usually a waste of time. It is human nature to be defensive. Suggestion in a none critical way leads to positive change. You have stated that you don't care for Sinclair's and that you want to open a restaurant in the area. Again, I suggest you not return and leave it to the folks who do enjoy it and I suggest that you open your restaurant. In theory it is your fault that Sinclair's does not live up to your expectations because you have stated that you can provide competition and have not done so.Provide the competition you have promised, tell people your place is better, and let the people be the judges.
We do have a difference of opinion as to the purpose of this forum. I believe that most members use it as a means of socializing with friends and neighbors and sharing pleasant stories or concerns. Occasionally there is someone who can find nothing right with Lake Martin or some part of life here. I suggest those folks rise with the sun and breath in the clean lake air, listen to how happy the birds are here, and appreciate what a privileged life we all lead here. I have found lake Martin to be my happy place. I hope you find your happy place too.
