The new owner of the property was there taking down the FOR SALE sign as we walked by, and we stopped to chat. He was really excited about opening a restaurant. <br /><br />We had recently seen the Kate Winslet version of the classic movie "Mildred Pierce", which was mostly about a restaurant start-up situation, so that added to the experience. We were really excited for him.<br /><br />We have often wondered if it got off the ground, and if it is giving The Bear Wallow some good competition. Thanks for the report.<br /><br />There are myriad photo ops in downtown Alpine. We stayed at the Alpine Village RV Park for those two months, and made many forays into town - up and down those hills.<br /><br />You're much better hikers than we are, so we didn't see as much as you did.judilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13640947046484366376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9062337474734435253.post-11560936588932092372013-05-27T20:14:49.546-07:002013-05-27T20:14:49.546-07:00Now that you've hiked Arizona's third high...Now that you've hiked Arizona's third highest mountain.....
