Auntie M’s: New Bakery and Lunch Spot Just Opened
Lucky us! A new restaurant just opened down the street from us. They offer made-from-scratch baked goods and Sleepy Monk coffee in the morning. For lunch they have a lovely menu of sandwiches and pasta salads (that they make themselves – thank you!!). During the cool mornings, the fire in the fireplace gives off a … Continued

We are ready!
The summer season starts with Memorial Weekend which is just around the corner! We are making final touches on our rooms, planting colorful flowers and making sure our systems are in place. Let the fun to begin!

Waking up to snow
Here is the view from my window this morning. The snow looks lovely! Of course, the snow is nearly all gone now that it is the afternoon. But we had a blast while it lasted.
Perfect Rainy Day Distraction: The Seaside Public Library
One of my favorite places to hang out at is the Seaside Public Library. In 2009, they changed locations and moved into a brand new building. The natural light is abundant, the people friendly, the computers are many and the book selection is diverse.
