OK...I have a question for all you long time residents from the Running Springs side of the mountain. I used to work in the late 70's at a restaurant called the Witches...

it was called the black cat. it burned down during the night I was waitress there, then I went to work at the Golden Elk in Arrow Bear, I lived in green Valley Lake then, had some good times in those mountains I miss every one.
Marianne T. replied:
Hazel...I believe that was it's, not so funny, joke name, after it burned. The Golden Elk was my and my, now deceased, husbands stompin' ground.
Franc G. replied:
I was a bass player in a band called Timberline that played at the Golden Elk for John Futella & Aggi those were great times
Hazel C. replied:
Do you remember David Bammer he played guitar with the band at Golden Elk some times. And I was a waitress for John and Nancy Little, before they moved away.
Hazel C. replied:
I didn't live there in the 70' s so that is why I didn't recognize your photo Franc or Marianne Turks. I lived in Green Valley lake from 1982 to 1997, I worked at the fat cat in 1986 then at Don Pepys in running springs and for Agnes at the golden elk and at the lake inn in green Valley Lake when Agnes owned it, John Futella and agi were married when I first moved there, they were divorced when I worked for agi . I went to the golden elk in arrowbear, Lloyds and Fireside in running spring to party, and the lake inn in Green Valley lake,

Hmmmm. One that matches that was named The Fat Cat. A bud worked there in the 80 s and it later burned down. That place was in town, though at 330 offramp.
Marianne T. replied:
The Fat Cat! Was never in it but loved working at The Witches Cottage! The food was fabulous! I loved cooking the Shrimp Flambe' tableside on a cart! So dramatic!
I am looking for a plumber or contractor who can put in a main sewer clean out.

Plumber and electrician showed up at the same time, bathroom doesn't look that big, maybe because Ted the plumber is almost 7' tall, we have company coming Sunday so...
