Door Pod Show Podcast

Jess Schultz

I have just finished listening to this podcast. It was fun and I enjoyed hearing the history of Sister Bay and Door Cnty from Al’s perspective.

I worked at Al’s when I was 19 washing dishes in the fall of ‘95 and ‘96 and always look back at my time there with fondness.

Please pass on my regards to Al, Lars, Rolph and Annicka.

I worked for Al in 1958 when he use to run next door to the local IGA when anyone ordered a steak. To this day I remember Al’s kind heart, swedish pancakes and herring for breakfast.

Sam Landstrom

I worked as a dishwasher for Al in high school and was good friends with his son Dennis. My favorite memory of the restaurant was coaxing the goats off the roof and into the back of a flatbed truck using swedish biscuits. I had to ride in the back of the truck to make sure none of them jumped out. Despite the fact the goats were all female, they fought with one another (when forced into close proximity) and it was up to me to keep them apart. I imagine it would have been a peculiar site to anyone watching us drive by. Anyway, it was a good time. I look forward to visiting again sometime.

Joakim Jilderfält

Me and my brother, Tomas, worked at Al´s in the summer of `80 or `81.
We still sometimes talk about our summer in Sister Bay, about the Johnson family and what we experienced “over there”.

Now as we both work as teachers in Sweden and have become mature men, we would like to thank the Johnson family for the opportunity they gave us. We didn´t really understand how big it had been until years later.

Please pass on our regards to the Johnson family.

Tack för allt ni gjorde för oss.

I worked at Al’s in 2005, it was a great experience especially for someone from eastern Europe.
Best wishes to all!
