Johnny Boys Pancake House
on the Killington Road

Since we have returned from Ireland, the weather at Killington has been very good. So having a rainy day today was not a bad thing. Instead of an 8:30 AM tee time this morning at Green Mountain National, the group I was scheduled to play golf with got together at a great place for breakfast on the Killington Road, Johnny Boys Pancake House. I went the traditional Bacon and Eggs route (sunnyside up). Within the group we also had an omelette, pancakes, and a Johnny Boy - something like Eggs Benedict only with a jalapeno cheese sauce replacing the hollandaise.

Of course at breakfast we solved all of the worlds problems (we should be congratulated for that) as well as comparing notes about what is going on around town. The biggest thing on deck in town, of course, is the new ownership of Killington. Nothing new to report on that front, as the new owners have taken a decidedly low profile. Rumor has it that season pass prices will be released for the next ski season later this week, but other than that it is very quiet in town.

At the inn, the day without golf has helped me catch up with some of the other items on my plate. Most of my work at the inn over the next couple of weeks will be related to re-opening the restaurant at the end of the month, as well as menu preparation for the upcoming Killington Wine Festival in the middle of July. Until then, if you get out on the course in the near future, keep it in the fairway, and don't forget the sunscreen.
