A nice Sunday afternoon in late April. Most diners have chosen to dine al fresco as it's that rare time of year when it's neither too hot or too cold, and another cold front is on the way. Tomorrow promises rain and significantly colder temperatures. Today however is a perfect Sunday afternoon as the children play in the sand, promises of summer yet to come.

In addition to dining inside or outside Melvin's also offers boat rentals. You can rent a boat, grab a little take-out and a bottle of wine and enjoy lunch or dinner on the lake.

This is also my favorite restaurant in the local area. Unfortunately it will probably be torn down this summer to make way for a condominium development.
