Birthday Bookings

It's been a crazy week (ok, it's pretty much been crazy all year...but it was really crazy this past week) here at the inn.  We've had more bookings than normal for May, which has been a pleasant surprise.  The inn was actually completely booked on my birthday, which was excellent for the bank account but kind of put a slight damper on any sort of birthday celebrations.  We did manage to run over to Red Lily Vineyard on Saturday in the late morning, which is one of my absolute favorite places to relax.  

Because it was Memorial Weekend, they had some food platters available - including a delicious antipasta platter and the most amazing chicken caesar salad I have ever eaten!



I wore my 1940s navy blue suit and my ridiculously-expensive Frank Palma hat.





We sat at a table overlooking the property and munched our way through a delicious lunch, while sipping glasses of their phenomenal tempranillo.



CHEERS!

Extra! Extra! Read All About It!

Our lovely little inn was mentioned in last Sunday's Mail Tribune newspaper!  The article was by the lovely vino-writer, Janet Eastman, and mentioned things to do/drink/stay in our wonderful Applegate Valley.  We were one of only two B&B's mentioned, having the luxury of being able to provide guests with "vineyard view" stays!

HERE is the article

Being a typical space cadet, I didn't even know that the article had come out until one of my neighbors walked over on Monday and showed me!  (Thank you!!)
