Stories from the Porch, continued… 🤍

Earlier in this series, we met Alizay, who has been coming to the Chalfonte since she was a child. Over Labor Day weekend, we caught up with her dad, Ali, and his wife, Linda, to hear their own Chalfonte story.

Ali and Linda were married here, and every Labor Day weekend, they return to celebrate their anniversary, revisiting old memories and making new ones with friends and family.
