Editorial
Fore
Season
Dining
Experience
Last
Saturday
night,
my wife
and I
celebrated
our 46th
wedding
anniversary,
and
instead
of
making
the 80
mile RT
trek
into
Tyler or
Longview,
we
decided
on the
Four
Seasons
Restaurant
on the
Ranch.
Our
waitress
was
Chelsea
Stevenson
who
lives on
the
Ranch
with her
grandparents.
She was
fantastic
and we
made a
new
friend.
Annette
had a
fish
dish,
Parmesan
Encrusted
Tilapia,
which
she
loved.
Oh yes,
we began
with the
coconut
shrimp
appetizer
and a
glass of
wine,
followed
by
Annette’s
salad
and my
potato
soup. (I
remembered
Marvo’s
letter
raving
about it
in a
recent
Gazette.)
Both
were
great.
My entre
was the
small
filet (6
oz.) and
it was
one of
the best
pieces
of meat
I have
had in a
long
time.
The
potato
medley
was
about a
5, but
the
steak
was so
good, I
didn’t
care.
Next
time I
will
choose a
loaded
Baked
Potato,
which is
the
normal
steak
paring
anyway.
We
concluded
our meal
with a
coffee
and a
tasty
bread
pudding
for
dessert.
Both of
the
owners
came by
our
table to
check on
our
satisfaction
during
the
meal,
which
was a
nice
touch.
Total
$60 with
tip. We
will be
back!

In a
recent
column,
I
lobbied
for a
“turn
around
drop
off” by
criticizing
the golf
cart
ride up
and down
the
hill.
Several
folks
thought
ill of
me for
the Golf
Cart
attack,
not
realizing
my point
was
intended
to be a
car
-turn-around-drive
concept.
It was
carelessly
worded
and I
hope
this
clarifies
what was
I was
thinking.

Recently
you have
received
subscription
mailers
from
this
newspaper
and your
response
has been
beyond
our
wildest
hopes.
We have
literally
been
flooded
with new
subscribers
and
renewals.
Many of
the
renewals
were
from
people
who had
just
forgotten
to send
in their
check
and the
mailer
was a
good
reminder.
Remember,
each
Gazette
has a
date on
the
address
label on
the
front
page,
bottom
right.
That
date is
the last
issue
you have
paid
for.
When you
renew,
we add
onto the
old
ending
date W.C.
Don’t
miss the
Global
Warming
piece
(another
Ice-
Age)
appearing
later in
this
issue.
You will
know you
are
there if
Al
Gore’s
picture
is
nearby,
with
Tipper.
What
other
newspaper
would
bring
you
this?

We are
publishing
a
supposed
“interview”,
to the
right,
between
a
supposed
reporter
from a
TV
station
in
Houston
and an
illegal
(Juan)
taking
part in
a
protest.
I
decided
to run
it
because
I have
heard
interviews
myself
on
several
occasions
where
some TV
person
was
asking
protesters
the same
types of
questions.
Have
patience
with our
attempt
to
develop
an
idea.
