Halloween: Dia de Los Muertos

October 28, 2021 by Patti 30 Comments

Halloween.  Dia de Los Muertos. It’s not so much that I’m madly in love with the holiday, although I do think it’s crazy fun. I am, in fact, madly in love with all things fall. The trees are bursting with color and mother nature is gearing up for winter as we near the end of October.

Why Everyone Should Visit Ashland, Oregon

March 10, 2018 by Patti 12 Comments
Ashland

It’s a fairly bold statement, “Why Everyone Should Visit Ashland, Oregon” but sometimes you just gotta make a big statement.  And, as long as you can back it up, why not go bold?

A Little Bit of Hollywood Rolled into Town

December 14, 2014 by Patti 11 Comments

“The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.”  Alfred Hitchcock

With conveniences such as Redbox, Netflix and microwave popcorn, it’s kind of hard to justify paying $20 for two people to see a movie in the theater.  Don’t you think?  But every now and then a movie will be released that just calls me to the theater.

Leaving Ashland, It Was Meant to Be

September 11, 2014 by Patti 14 Comments

Although we love our 1904 classic American house – we cannot honestly say it has ever truly felt like, home.   I know, sounds odd, right?  The life of an innkeeper is so different than the so-called ordinary life; it’s a little hard to put into words.

What Will Change My Life?

September 6, 2014 by Patti 14 Comments

I just finished reading a post written by our friend, Will.  I got to the end of the last paragraph, dried my eyes and immediately emailed Will and asked him if I could publish his post on my site.  Fortunately, he said, “Yes.”

White Water Rafting on the Rogue River

July 21, 2014 by Patti 20 Comments

With commands such as left forward, right back, forward two and HOLD ON! the adrenaline rush of white water rafting on the Rogue River makes for an awe-inspiring (and ridiculously fun) afternoon on the water.

It’s What’s for Breakfast: Bacon & Eggs, Please

June 22, 2014 by Patti 50 Comments

It’s a rare thing to have the inn to ourselves – very rare – but the other night I took the opportunity to actually sit in the unusually quiet dining room to work on my weekly breakfast menu planning, bacon & eggs and so much more, while Abi watched the world cup soccer game back in our apartment.  It’s true.  I admit it.  I could care less about watching the world cup soccer games.  Am I the only one?

Spring Fever, That Infectious Malady ~

March 18, 2014 by Patti 12 Comments

Every spring it’s the same thing – the onset of my love/hate relationship with this blossoming time of year – and it’s about to roll around again come Thursday, March 20.  The first day of spring 2014.  Yesterday, it hailed in southern Oregon.  Go figure.  Blossoms through the hail, it’s a symphony of contrasts.

Even the Volkswagon is Orange ~

October 29, 2013 by Patti 6 Comments

I know, I know, you’re thinking – just how many photos can one take of fall leaves?  Apparently, if you’re us, quite a few.  It seems as if every tree we come upon offers up some little tweak of excellence.  So with that being said, here are a few more and I promise, this will be the last of them (fingers crossed behind my back).  I think you’ll thank me for posting these though!
