Sun Studio, The Birthplace of Rock & Roll

April 27, 2014 by Patti 22 Comments

I had someone correct my grammar once on a blind date, and within the first 10 minutes the date was over. You just don’t correct somebody’s grammar. That’s just not okay. I’m from Tennessee, so I probably say everything wrong. I might have said ‘ain’t,’ or something like that.

Charleston, South Carolina & Scarlett O’Hara

February 9, 2014 by Patti 24 Comments

Charleston and Scarlett O’Hara.  I’m finally coming out of my road trip fog and accepting the fact that we are actually home and life goes on.  I always have some delicious little what’s next travel plan in my head.  I can’t help it, I’m always ready to go again.  In the meantime though it’s time to get it in gear and get this Bed & Breakfast Inn of ours ready for guests and the upcoming season.

Southern Hospitality is Alive and Well

January 14, 2014 by Patti 10 Comments
