Yes - we had a place on the lake near there in the early 80’s - late 90’s. That place was nuts. And I heard lots of stories about the use of the airstrip.

Back in the ‘70s I worked for a big timber company that had thousands of acres of land On TB and there was a bar down around Zwolle that was pretty wild. Did Ethel have a bar? The place used to have a lot of fights. The Driftwood name triggered this memory.

I remember a guy telling me that he saw a fight there one night when a guy took a large kitchen knife to another fellow. Claimed he cut him under each armpit and inside both thighs.
Bled out in minutes in front of the place with a crowd watching it.
