Lake Hotel Officially Opens Tomorrow

Just an update on our job situation and what is going on at the Lake Yellowstone Hotel.  Today is our last day of official training.  Tonight is our "Shakedown Dinner" which means that hosts (me), servers, and the kitchen is in full swing for a dinner to all the lake area employees before we officially open tomorrow for lunch.  Dinner will be free to all employees to enjoy our fine dining selections from the actual menu.  To give you an idea most of the entrees are between 15 and 35 dollars, so this is quite a treat.  Some of the entrees are bison tenderloin, blackened salmon, a lamb trio, Montana trout, among others.  Even the food and beverage employees get to enjoy this as we have divided into two teams, one eating early and one eating later. 
   Sam is doing something similar at the front desk.  They are doing mock reservations, check outs, and the like.  Also, the employee pub officially opens tonight!  Everyone around town is super excited for this particular feature.  Especially since they are serving liquor as well as beer and wine for the first time.  We plan on heading out for a little while, but not too late as my first shift begins for lunch tomorrow at 11:15.  We aren't expected to be too busy as far as guests go, but we are expecting the phone to start ringing off the hook to take reservations for the coming weeks.  Everything is getting ready to be in full swing! Can't wait for that first paycheck to get here!  Oh, and just to digress a bit, after our beautiful mid 60s day yesterday it is back in the low 40s and snowing right now, haha...
