“I stayed for three nights in a modest one-room unit at the King Salmon Lodge, which was a comfortable but rustic facility. As I recall, the meals were homestyle fare. I cannot recall whether the group at the lodge, about 20 people, was served wine, but if there was wine it was certainly not wine that costs $1,000.”
Doesn’t it just…. speak for itself.
I love the denials. The language of the English Chancery, ca. 1780. We are to be impressed, not pandered to. Harrumph!
