Hi every one. It’s been a long time since
Adventures of an Innkeeper
had a contest AND, we are celebrating the fact that now, if you haven’t already bookmarked the blog’s address,
you can type www.AdventuresOfAnInnkeeper.com and get here too.
Yippeeeeee
This time the price is really fantabulous, if I do say so myself.
So, here’s what we’re going to do:
Find the answer to:
What is the name of the movie theater in Frankfort?
Or simply just post a comment of whatever you want to say.
The contest closes this coming Sunday, April 11th, 2010.
At that time I will take everyone’s entry and throw them in a hat.
Enter/comment as many times as you want in the Contest post.
Good luck!
Oh, you would like to know what you’re going to win? hehe
The book that I showed you in this post
Gosh I’ve been away so long! This is fun. This is what I have found.
Garden Theater – Frankfort301 West Main Street, Frankfort, MI 49635, (231)3527561
I plan to catch up on the rest of the posts that I have missed in the last few weeks. Keep up the good work Iris!!
I thought I would be the first to answer!! Garden Theatre!
Love reading your posts!
Karen
P.S., wanted to also say this looks like it’s a gorgeous book!
It is a really pretty coffee table book, Karen. Thank you for always reading my scribblings…
I feel bad. I cheated. I Googled. I take myself out of the running. 🙂
Ahh, they beat me to it!
The Garden Theater!
It’s the Garden Theater!
Nice guess, Angie and Sally 😛
You said, “just say something,” so OK….
The God of Thunder rode to war
upon his favorite filly.
“I’m Thor!” he cried,
and the horse replied,
You forgot your thaddle, thilly!
Exactly Jim. Thank you for posting.
Hey! your post was in the spam folder. How come?
U dunno, but be sure to add it to your approved sender list — so email / comments coming from your blog aren’t filtered!
That should be “I dunno!” (My fingers are all messy from eating bon bons!)
I remembered all on my own, Frankfort Garden Theater, but does it count since so many beat me to it???
The entire contest is for people who post. I don’t care what they post. The Garden Theater was just a rouse, heehee.
So, even that cheater Christine is still in the running 😛
hahahahahahaha {{hugs}} 🙂
We love you Christine with and without faults, heehee
And here I was, planning to steal Christine’s answer. 🙂 The book looks beautiful. Is that one of your photos in the second picture?
None of the pictures are mine. There were 9 photographers from all over the U.S. they took part in a contest for the Pure Michigan campaign. One of them stayed with us at the Wayfarer for a week and he didn’t win the contest but some of his pictures are in the book and of course they are from this area.
The Garden Theater!!! Of course I Googled it and I had no idea by the way that you had a blog. I keep trying to get mine going, but not too terribly successful.
Gloria
P.S. are you on Facebook? You would get loads of hits I bet if you did!!
Hi Gloria.
Yes, I post to facebook and twitter from here as well. I have a bunch of entries sitting in my email. some people didn’t read through to the end or don’t want to comment out loud.
How is Kevin?
The Garden Theatre = )
I love me a smart woman. heehee
“The Garden Theater” …according to their webpage at least.
http://www.frankfortgardentheater.com
The name of the theater in Frankfort is called the Garden Theatre…just maybe I have a chance! 🙂
The Garden Theater…how many times have you been there? 12
OK! OK!!! It’s the Garden Theater! I’m blogging just for you Iris!! :>))
The Garden Theater!
I see Rowanna has been there 12 times. I never kept count…..now it’s got me wondering….
I am sure you were there quite a few more times. You should see that theater now. What a difference love can make.
Well, the Garden Theater, of course. BTW, it must be spring. In the mailbox tonight was a fly fishing catalog from Cabela’s. Fishing catalogs and gardening catalogs are the best fiction, I think.
Top of the line graphite fly rods are pushing the $700 mark. Somehow I don’t think those little trout I catch would be impressed. 😉
No, the trout might not be impressed but the fishermen fishing next to the one holding that graphite rod might think “Well looky here, Mr. Fooffoffnick with his fancy equipment…”
It’s the Garden Theatre…of course I’m way late with the response but can’t get on blogs at work. I wish you a great season ahead, and will see you in about five months for this year’s NMGE!
So good to hear from you, Joe. The timeliness of your comment has nothing to do with your chances to win. Can’t wait to have your fun group here again.
My friend Art, who cannot be persuaded to post comments and always just sends them to me, wrote the following:
“A better question–why on earth did they name it that? Was there ever a garden in front of it? Or did weeds grow in the dust inside before it was cleaned two years ago? A”
🙂 too funny. Had to be posted!
Would that be the Garden Theater on Main St.?
Why yes, yes it is the Garden Theater on Main Street. You are so clever 😉
Is it the Garden Theater on Main St.?
I was going to say the hot dog theater, but I know that it is wrong (I know, wrong spelling… just thought it was cute).
TIM, how nice to see you. Thanks for coming by and playing
Hi Iris! Its so nice of you to think of us! I unfortunately don’t have internet at our house anymore (too $$$ right now!) I think of you and all the MBers often! I do lurk from my cell phone, but posting is so annoying! I posted some new pictures of the boys on the blog today! Hope all is well!
❤ Megan
Megan, where are you now? I don’t think you made it back to Celebration or am I wrong?
The Garden Theater. I looked through my pictures to find the name…I should have just looked here. I guess that would be cheating though, huh?! Anyway the pictures made me excited to come back!
Heather!!! we were just talking about you (nicely) yesterday.
I hope you had a good winter and that you’ll be visiting soon…
Aww, thanks Iris! You’re the best! I want to come see some pretty wild flowers…when is the best time? Did I mention that theater is called the Garden Theater! 🙂
😆 Heather, the best time would be anytime. But truthfully mid May through the summer.
And yes, I believe you mentioned the theater’s name as well as several other people, heehee
The Garden theater of Frankfort
😉
The Garden Theater of course.
Thanks for keeping this blog up. I check your site often. Still trying to pin my son down for a date of when he can take vacation. We want to him and his wife to see the Frankfort area. Thought we would rent two cabins. I can’t wait. I miss Frankfort so much. Will be calling soon. Save some cabins for us.
Oh, yea don’t forget to put my name in the drawing. I would love that book. Will have to buy it if we don’t win.
Happy Springtime!
We’ll be here for you Robbyn – but hurry, summer is filling up
The is my first time a blogging. Not sure I’m doing it correctly. You should create a film on how to Blog on your web site and have it play at the Garden theater. Frank Beier
Frank, you’re a master at it already. All it takes is typing and pushing buttons and making sure that everybody in the whole wide world can see what you have to say.
Thank you!
See now, you have 2 chances to get that book 😉
Not sure how to blog
The Garden Theater (and I Googled it, too!). Hope to see you some time this summer and I’ll probably bring my new puppy named Betsie–after Pt. Betsie!
Joyce
How sweet – Betsie. How about emailing pictures?
The Garden Theater 🙂
I love looking at your blog, Iris! And so enjoy the pictures. Can’t wait to come up for a visit.
Susan
Susan, this spring and summer are going to be really nice. Everything is turning green and starting to bloom already.
Well, I bet the theater name is The Garden Theater…
Hope to see you real soon. Take care.
PS, Hard to believe its nearly 30 years when you, Mike, walked into that ET shop at Petaluma! Good God!
Oh my gawd, Joe, it is indeed hard to believe. And look all the things that happened to you and Mike since then. Life = amazing
The Garden Theater which was built in 1923 and has had some major restoration work done recently. Got to love the internet! Looking forward to seeing a movie there this summer and staying at the little cottages!
Hi Judy, how nice of you to stop by! See you soon.
of course it is the garden theater. i believe i spent many more nights watching movies then row did.(here i am iris)
Well blow me down, look who’s commenting.
Hi Pat- so good to see you here.
OMG! She did it! 🙂
yeah, I know. I had to do a double take myself.
I hope she comes back many times, maybe even to tell me what she wants me to take pictures of 😉
Good idea Iris. Put her to work looking for things for you to take pictures of!
Iris:
I have never seen a movie in Frankfort. They
have a theater too.
Is there a show on April 22, 2010.
James
sadly, they only have shows on the weekends during the winter season. But, if you stayed another night, on the 23rd they’ll have something good for you!!!!! 🙂
Ahhh, northern Michigan simply divine!
I know this one – Garden Theatre…
Looking forward to seeing you SOON!!!
Yay, Mr. Fuller! Thanks for stopping in and participating. Give my best to Miss Ava
The Garden Theater
That’s the correct answer 🙂
Good to hear from you Bernard. How is everything?
The Garden Theater.
It’s been years ago that we last went to the garden theater.
Is it still open?
We will check it out this fall when we come up on a fishing trip.
indeed it is the Garden and it has been refurbished in the best possible way. Ok come on up then and book that cottage
I cheated too, Google is my friend. The Garden Theater.
cheating is not a problem here 😆
Thanks for stopping by
Of course, it’s the Garden Theater, though we haven’t seen it since the renovation. Definitely, this season! Will it be open on Memorial Weekend?
Our wonderful and pretty theater is open all year long, because they now have heat and the most comfortable seats 😉
Jeez! Why did I bother to Google it first? Could have come here and copied the answer. It’s the Garden Theater! Or Theatre. You are lucky to have a theater in your town. You are so lucky. I suggest that only those people who don’t have theaters in their town should be eligible to win the contest. LOL! (You see, we have more time to read the book and look at the photos because we can’t go to theaters…)
hehe! made you google 😛
I should have checked with you first to see what sort of rules we need to put into place for this contest. I should call them giveaways. We’ll try that next time.
Your name goes in the big, black hat! Good luck, it’s a beautiful book
Anything good playing this weekend at the Garden Theater in Frankfort?! 🙂
No nothing this week, Heather. The theater is undergoing some more restoration.
http://www.frankfortgardentheater.com – there you’ll find the schedule of things to come after April 15th.
Hello Iris. I have to admit I don’t know the name of the move theatre…and I’ve never actually been to Michigan, except on layovers. But I do like the idea of a contest! I will definitely employ something like that soon, when Im able to secure some free green schwag. Thanks for the idea!
Hi Gaby,
Contests are fun. Try one soon!
Okey dokey people, the contest is closed.
Thank you for participating. I will announce the winner tonight.
