✨ One of the truly special blessings of owning a bed and breakfast is never knowing who might gather around our breakfast table each morning.
Today was one of those memorable mornings.
As we enjoyed breakfast on the patio with a wonderful table full of guests - surrounded by birdsong, 🐦rustling pines, 🌲and the playful antics of a few curious squirrels 🐿️ we had the pleasure of meeting Joan Berish, wildlife biologist, author, storyteller, and all-around delightful guest.
The conversations shared around the table were as inspiring as the setting, and we're thrilled to now have a signed copy of her book, Fire and Fauna: Tales of a Life Untamed, displayed in our new library. 😉
If you're looking for a fun summer read filled with wildlife encounters, adventure, and a lifetime spent exploring the natural world, Joan's book is well worth adding to your reading list.
