I am sooo excited about this!! Come on down to Jefferson for the 4th of July weekend. This small town has it going on!

July 3rd at 7pm. Horace Steadman “Steady” Nelson, born in Jefferson, Texas, was a 20th-century American musician who specialized in Jazz and Swing during the Big Band era. He recorded over 60 sessions on trumpet and vocals with Woody Herman, Hal McIntyre, the Casa Loma Orchestra, Horace Hiedt, the NBC Radio orchestra and others. Nelson’s most important works are his instrumental lead in “Woodchopper’s Ball” and two solo vocal recordings with Woody Herman’s band : “I’m Comin’ Virginia”, and “Rosetta”. Nelson has been declared a Texas Music Pioneer by the Texas Music Office, a division of the Office of the Governor of Texas.

Starr takes her Guest Relations Manager position very seriously.

She followed me into the bathroom and sat there supervising my entire tooth-brushing routine. Apparently, after inspecting the guest rooms, breakfast prep, and front porch, she felt my dental hygiene needed a quality-control check too.

Her official report:
*Toothbrush used correctly
*Brushed for the full two minutes
*No cavities detected (that she knows of)

Benefits of having a cat boss: free inspections.
Downside: absolutely zero privacy!
