Q. Have your first six weeks in this new position been a challenge? A. Yes, in a very good way. As residents have returned we have increased our hours. We adjusted our prices and added happy hour discounts until 5PM. We have bar snacks of pretzels, chips and hummus. Monday night football, hot dogs on Tuesday, hamburger Wednesdays, Bella Roma specials Thursday. Live music on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. January is going to be very busy and exciting. Working with M EREDITH we issue an email almost everyday detailing our specials. Be sure to add your email address to our list. Q . Tell us about your staff . A. We are fortunate to have bartenders A DRIAN and Y ESCENIA , they bring experience and enthusiasm. We enjoy getting to know our customers and their drink preferences. Our customers are amazing and have such interesting stories about their home states and provinces. We couldn’t work in a nicer resort. Q. One comment we hear is it takes too long to get a drink. Any thoughts? A. We are working to speed up our service. For larger events we open our beverage cart where volunteers serve beer and wine. We use a cash box instead of our electronic point of sale system. We respect that some people bring their favorite bottle of wine, but remind you to come to the bar or cart and buy a $5 corkage sticker so your tablemates know you are supporting our entertainment budget. Q. Do I see a new machine on the counter? A That’s our Island Oasis frozen drink machine. Try one. Evening specials include margaritas, and mango and strawberry fruit drinks.

1/15-Mission Impossible: Fallout: During an Impossible Mission Force mission in Berlin, things go sideways after Ethan Hunt must make a terrible choice between completing the mission or protecting his team. As a result of his decision, billions of lives are put at risk. He receives the blame from their superiors who decide to bench Hunt and his team while the Central Intelligence Agency has them
under review. One of their enemies tells Hunt that soon he and the world will have to face the "fallout" for all of his good intentions. Hunt tries to stop the fallout while at the same time facing off against agents of both the US government and its enemies. 1/22-Operation Finale
In the wake of World War II, many people began to gain awareness of the horrors that had unfolded. Before long, a secret team is assembled to locate the evil men who served as the architects of the Holocaust; many have fled to South America. They set their sights on Adolph Eichmann, a Nazi officer who seems practically impossible to catch. During their search, they will discover so much more about the tragedy of the Holocaust, as well as themselves. 1/29-First Man A first-person account through the eyes of Neil Armstrong recounts the history-changing years before the Apollo 11 mission. Neil's character takes us back to 1961, and recalls what it was like to be the first man on the moon. Retelling the most dangerous mission America had ever done, Neil brings to life his personal sacrifices, and the sacrifices of the country. Neil leads us from the very beginning, all the way up to July 20, 1969, when he took one giant leap for mankind.
