Mad About March

Sleepy Wintertime Bayview is about ready to rock. The month of March will feature 50 cents off all drinks, new food items including taco salads, etc. In addition to the menu, weekly drawings will be held. Prizes galore at the Captain's Wheel Restaurant.

Also don't forget open mike Wednesday pm and live music Saturday nights. All music starts early so you don't have to worry about getting up the next morning.

Last night's snow has melted and it looks like the dire warning for this afternoon and evening isn't going to be that bad. Just snow/melt/changing to rain. The usual early spring stuff. Good riddance to February and hello to March, the gateway to Spring.

A recent conversation with Chip Corsi, Idaho Fish & Game produced hope that finally, the Kokanee have recovered enough for a limited fishing season for them in 2013. Stay tuned.

The Bayview Chamber is soliciting funds to keep the street lights burning. Up to this point, the Chamber has stood the cost of the electric use.  

Brand new lumber has brightened up the bay as Scenic Bay Marina is in the later process of rebuilding all of the docks.

Some hardy souls have been seen fishing out on the bay and others will follow shortly. Don't forget, if you don;'t have a boat or have sold yours, you can rent kicker boats from MacDonald's Resort and larger craft from the Bayview Marina.

While the Buttonhook remains closed, breakfast lunch is available at Ralph's Internet Cafe, and the Bay Cafe. Dinner at those locations as well, but including the Captain's Wheel for Dinner and drinks. As always, J.D.'s Bar is open 7 days a week. Come on down.

Clint Darnell & Friends are playing at the Wheel tonight, Saturday about 7:00 pm.
