Well our first weekend is behind us - and I just want to say, it
was a blast! Let me tell you all about it, but first, an introduction. We are
the new Innkeepers, Valerie and Eric. And joining us are my parents, Victor and
Victoria. We are the new Journey Inn - just as wonderful as the old Journey Inn
of course!
After two weeks of
frantic unpacking, decorating, landscaping, cooking - we opened to a full
house. We had folks from New York, New Zealand, Pennsylvania, Florida, and
Ohio. Some were just getting away for a weekend, others on a tour of the east
coast, some folks taking a course at the Culinary Institute of America, and two
sisters just wanting to spend some time together. And a good friend who wanted
to share our first weekend - thanks Liz and Charlie!
What a great
weekend it was. The weather was beautiful; the conversation was lively and fun.
I do believe a great time was had by all. Our first breakfast was herbed
scrambled eggs with roasted asparagus, blueberry muffins, local breakfast
sausages, and strawberries with crème fraîche and brown sugar.
I will never forget that first meal.
On Saturday, a
nice glass of champagne was shared to celebrate the reopening and our new life
as innkeepers.
Thanks to all the
wonderful guests who helped make it such a memorable weekend.
