Seeking Feedback - Calling all Librarians

What if a couple bookshelfs were added to the Klatsch for community or visitor pleasure reading? Not as extreme as Kaldis (the Over-the-Rhine coffee shop that can easily be mistaken for a used book shop), but enough to keep folks curious and engaged? Then there's the even more important question: what types of books would you like to see? Pulp fiction? Old paperbacks? Art books? History books? Useless "How To" computer manuals? Let us know.

Seeking Feedback - General

This blog is dedicated to the Mt. Adams Kaffee Klatsch. We're looking for community feedback to create the best possible experience at the coffee shop. Shoot us your thoughts or feedback. So far we've received a bunch of wonderful ideas, so please keep sending them our way.

Was there Really A Vineyard Here?

Did they really grow grapes here in Mt. Adams? This is the legend, but after pouring over countless documents yesterday in the "Special Collections" room, we found precious little evidence in the form of photos, wine-labels, or even wine-signs. So we're a bit suspicious. At one point the librarian turned up a picture frame of what might have been a genuine Longfellow Catawbwa wine label, but because the picture was framed, we simply could not verify whether it was infact genuine. And so the search continues. If you have any clues, let me know. Any relics out there?

Answers to the Pop Quiz

This week in the Mt. Adams Newsletter we asked three questions:

- What years did the Mt. Adams Incline open and close?

- Cappuccino is named after an order of Catholic monks? Who are they?

--What’s St. Gregory’s claim to fame, other than having a street in Mt. Adams named after him?

If you answer these three questions right, print out your answers (along with the ad) to the Klatsch and if you are right, we'll pour you a free cup of java? (Or the equivalent.) Hint: you might find the answer by cruising around this site.
