Forty years ago today - May 26, 1986 - this inn opened her doors for the very first time.
I tried to celebrate properly.
The inn had other plans.
🕯️🦢 Happy 40th Birthday, Whistling Swan Inn. The longest continuously operating bed and breakfast in Northern New Jersey. Still humbling me daily.

Fifty pounds of salt, because the inn needs soft water. Happy Maintenance Monday.

This is what happens when you give an innkeeper a rainy day and a power drill. Can’t wait to debut these at our next Victorian tea. 🫖

A winter storm blew out the panels to the greenhouse. I figured out how to replace them. Added some twinkly lights and a little seating area. The seedlings have been started. I’m sourcing shelves. Can’t wait to see the finished product.
See you at the breakfast table. 🌿🦢

Changing a showerhead is easier than you think.

Lefty loosey.

Plumber’s tape.

Don’t skip the tape.

You’re welcome.

Try the vinegar soak first though - save yourself $45.

Showed up for my son’s final performance of the year.

Fire alarm had other plans.

We went outside. They kept playing. Of course they did.

Worth every minute. 🦢🎷

Music to an innkeeper’s ears isn’t the ding of a booking notification.

It’s this.

The cat disagrees. She’s seen better.

You decide!
