Here's a quick overall update on the experiment, and we promise to get back to the 'fun stuff' post-haste.
Well, we're still here and still feeling like we're on the busiest and best vacation of our lives. Southern Maine is blooming. It's really waking up for the season, and we've loved witnessing it. We've met some awesome people from all over the states as well as foreign cities including Montreal, Edinburgh, and Perth. We've met all kinds of area business people, too: cab drivers, shop owners, restaurateurs, housekeepers, fishing charter... ers?, and other innkeepers. In addition to new friends, we've played host to a couple of old ones. And we're about to have the official first parent visit, so stay tuned ;)
So far the 24/7 job hasn't pulled us under, though the summer will be the true test. Our favorite tasks have probably been renovating our new Tasting Room (you can glimpse some of the original hardwood floors below!) and developing new recipes for breakfast dishes and afternoon cookies.
I need y'all to survive the summer so you're still there when I come visit. It's looking like a late September, early October... so stick around till at least then. And the updates are great... keeps me excited for the trip.
