A Proclamation from Mayor Mel


A Proclamation

Not withstanding the approximately 2 feet of crusty, blackened snow covering every surface except those which are covered with 6 inches of ice, the daytime temperatures refusing to approach 40o F and the nighttime temperatures causing all bears in the vicinity to roll over and go back to sleep;

And despite the increasing delirium observed among our customers, the apparent lack of interest in returning among the many snowbirds who abandoned us last fall, and the general hopelessness that has descended upon the local populace;

Be it known that Her Honor Miss Mel, as the self-appointed, and therefore, infallible Mayor of Emmaville, hereby declares the


 OFFICIAL BEGINNING OF SPRING


 and as such has caused to be commissioned that most appropriate symbol of Spring, the first Rhubarb Pie.
 
 

The Emmaville Café reopens tomorrow at 7 am. You snooze, you lose.

  1. I remember stopping by Emmaville on my way to/from Camp Wilderness as a youngster. I wasn't aware that it had closed either in years past but this past weekend my girlfriend and I stopped by on our way through and enjoyed it! Great little spot.
