Victuals | Adventures of an Innkeeper

https://lifeinbenziecounty.wordpress.com/victuals-aka-vittels

Adventures of an Innkeeper. Life in a Beach Town. More specifically Shiitake mushrooms were my choice for dinner last week. It all started with the mushrooms that I got with my CSA last week. I went to Crescent Bakery and got a nice multigrain bread. Long story short:. I diced some bacon from the Honor Family Market, real bacon that has been smoked, not doused in liquid smoke! Serve with a nice fresh, green salad and some cold, sparkling water with a squeeze of lemon or a nice cold beer. May 5, 2009.

Adventures of an Innkeeper. Life in a Beach Town. May 7, 2015. Yesterday, while taking care of our grandson for the day, I moseyed around the cottages, while the little munchkin rolled around in the gravel, collecting little rocks, and wrestling with sticks in the grass. I started to clean out the flower box by The Goldfinch. Cottage #2) and almost grabbed a Robin’s nest. Robin eggs by “The Goldfinch”. A Drive through Sleeping Bear Dunes →.

Adventures of an Innkeeper. Life in a Beach Town. May 14, 2015. Concert in the Meadow. I believe that I forgot to tell you about a concert in the meadow. Last summer an older couple spend a week with us. Before they made their reservations, they asked if Mr. P. would be allowed to practice his bagpipes. 8220;YESSssss, he most certainly can! 8221;, was my answer. A Drive through Sleeping Bear Dunes.

Adventures of an Innkeeper. Life in a Beach Town. June 28, 2015. A ride in a 1954 Jeep. Today was an exciting day for a couple of our smallest guests. Ted Bahry, a longtime friend, came to visit in his Jeep, and two little boys got the ride of their lives. Ted is a retired Marine who had extensive work done on this 1954 vehicle and it shows. A ride in an old jeep. June 13, 2015. From Chicks to Hens. These little, yellow, brown and black little puffballs grew into magnificent pets. And last but not least:.

Wayfarer History | Adventures of an Innkeeper

https://lifeinbenziecounty.wordpress.com/wayfarer-history

Adventures of an Innkeeper. Life in a Beach Town. Christine requested some more pictures of the Wayfarer and also some history and stories. Since we’re not busy yet, there won’t be too many current stories for a while, but what I can do is talk about things past. What I know is what 2 former owners have told me. So, if any locals are reading this and know something better than I do, please let me know! Where we live. My 3 guys are painting the eves. View from the front lawn. Turkeys on the front lawn.

Adventures of an Innkeeper. Life in a Beach Town. August 15, 2016. Exciting day today. Our first Tesla driver came to the Wayfarer and plugged in. Another is expected to stay in about 8 days. Such a pretty car. That’s all. August 8, 2016. Fox the Story Teller. Fox and his grandparents stayed with us when he was 5 years old. Now at the ripe old age of 11, he came back to stay at the Wayfarer for a week. This is what he came up with before they arrived. Don’t you just love his imagination? August 5, 2016.

Adventures of an Innkeeper. Life in a Beach Town. May 16, 2015. A sunset and then some. Some very nice guests of ours have shared their pictures from an outing in Frankfort. It was a rainy kind of a day, yesterday, and no one could have guessed that, through the evening fog, such a beautiful picture would be possible. If you click on the pictures, they will magically expand😉. Les White, the photographer, and his other half, Lori, also found their first morel mushrooms, AND, they had them for breakfast.

Adventures of an Innkeeper. Life in a Beach Town. July 12, 2016. As I walked up to Hummingbird (#6 for all who have stayed at the Wayfarer), a card was clipped to the door addressed to “Iris”. 8220;Dear Iris, I figured you would never forget the two ladies who traveled all the way from Florida for a wedding that got cancelled the day of.” –. I may forget what is on my personal calendar some days, but I rarely forget a guest. I know – strange, LOL. July 10, 2016. The Frankfort city garden. July 6, 2016.
