ELBERTA — On Monday, workers of the Wolf Bay Lodge stood in the parking lot, sharing information about signing up for unemployment benefits. Drivers eased past to look at the burned landmark restaurant, or stopped to share their sorrow.
The lodge, operated on the shores of Wolf Bay by the same family since 1973, was gutted Sunday by a fire that broke out around 3 a.m.
Looking over the ruins, the owners pledged again Monday to rebuild. For now, 55 workers will have to go without tips and paychecks right before Christmas.
