Open! Open! OPEN!!!






"Every normal man must be tempted, at times,
to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag,
and begin slitting throats."
H.L. Mencken


Or...you could take the convertible out for a ride to Napa and stop
at the Cutthroat Bar (formerly known as the Cutthroat Saloon)
in a charming little town (and I do mean little!)
called Markleeville!!!

  2. I'm always interested in language and "saloon" seems far more picturesque and appropriate rather than "bar", which seems so tame by comparison.

    1. I agree Kate!!! They've gentrified the saloon! It used to have bras hanging from the ceiling!!!

  7. Great reflection of the tree and the "Cutthroat Bar" would definitely be a stop-off. Love the H L Mencken quote...
