The Rose Marie Inn

Went to clean the rental and the squirrels left presents on the deck again. They have been leaving walnut shells ever since I put up a squirrel feeder.

When you tell your husband that you need to borrow his truck in the morning and he says ok without knowing why. I have been eyeing this up and didn't want to purchase a new one because, 1 am not good at putting things together and 2 I didn't want to ask Doug to do it because I feel I ask too much as it is.

This could be used as a doctors or vet office for play at the Inn. I have a few more things coming that either I will have to try to put together or it can wait until Doug has time.

The shed was delivered this morning. The ground was soft due to all the rain. We had to add top soil, grass seed and straw to the property. Like Doug said, even Disney has construction. A few weeks and the Amish rockers will be ready.
I am headed to Ohio tomorrow to pick up the McDonalds play set then, making the final preparations for our guest coming in Thursday.

Today, we put away more toys for the children who stay at the Inn. We have something for each age range. I will be sharing videos this week. The toys are intended to inspire creativity. Makes me wish I was a child again.

We have been feeding the squirrels at the inn and in return they have been leaving me walnuts on the porches.

We reserved this weekend to tackle various projects at the Inn. Between the rain, Doug refreshed most of the areas that required repainting. Weather permitting today, I anticipate him completing the task. I still need to stain the decks if we experience warm and dry weather. He prepared the site for the shed that is arriving Tuesday. We have 6 more shrubs to plant. I worked on organizing the children’s area, storing away the toys we purchased. We have acquired some imaginative toys that will inspire creativity. I am collecting an interactive ice cream truck today. I will be creating and posting videos throughout the week. This has been a fulfilling 5-month endeavor, transforming the Inn into a relaxing and memorable rental property.
