Jane and Karl Found Their Way to the Inn

Today’s bitter cold made it a good day to sit in the cafe windows and read the Gazette. There I found a story about one of our customers, Jane Sabo, who with her husband Karl has run the nearby Deerfield Inn for 20 years. The story reflected on their decision to move to this rural burg from New York City. Karl was working at the posh 21 Club and Jane had come over from London to work in independent film distribution. They bought the inn partly as a way to spend more time with each other.`

They told reporter Cris Carl about one guest who had made a lot of long distance calls during his stay at the inn. They were worried at how he would react when the presented him with the large phone bill.

“The chap just took one look at the bill, opened a brief case full of packets of hundred dollar bills, and handed us one, saying to give the change to the staff,” said Jane Sabo, “My draw just dropped.”
