shakertown goes wet....

ok, so....with a vote of 426-341...the precinct that boasts the restored shaker village in the county just to the north will now allow alcohol sales with lunches and dinners. This will be good news for shakertown, which suffers from under-utilization. Even in-county landmarks like the beaumont inn can offer alcohol to dinner and overnight guests because the city voted several years ago to allow alcohol sales under certain conditions. But shakertown was not within city limits, and voters, up until now, have always defeated ballot iniatives.....shakertown is a lovely place to stay fro events in lexington, but could not draw large crowds because of the 'dry' issue. I am looking forward to our annual christmas outing at shakertown with the propect of a nice glass of wine......
