Visit scenic… Monk’s Drop!

Named for our first mayor, Enric Monk’s Drop, this beautiful city on a plain is home to:

  • The richest cow in the state!
  • A local salad made up of FOUR vegetables!
  • A seminary with an amazing tower that has never tempted a monk to suicide!
  • A penny museum!
  • Trees!
  • The Hall of Postcards!
  • Soothing rivers!
  • Lots of happy, happy monks!

For Your Consideration

hiking

 

Sometimes, Amanda and I like to take postcards and, inspired by the art, either draw or write something original on the back then send them off to friends. This is one of those.

For your consideration during your stay: HIKING! 

Good exercise, a chance to commune with nature, and only rarely would one expect to encounter a spectral male figure walking through the brush, unslowed and ethereal. I don’t know know why I’m mentioning it. But if you DO go hiking — and you should — and if you DO see a pale shadow, then please keep in mind that whatever mishap befell that lost soul, it would have predated the founding of our hotel & spa.

This one’s leaving soon for who-knows-where.

“Learn to swim! To not swim is an insult to our new political allies, the mer-men, who have begun to invest heavily in our local economy, supporting small businesses and, to be frank, putting food on all of our tables. Look. You already float. Without doing anything, you float. So move your arms and legs a little. If you get drowned, it’s like littering in their city and you come off like a big jerk. Learn. To. Swim.”
