Arbor House News and Views

Took a long walk around the lake and downtown this morning and the breeze was so wonderful. It has been a long hot summer and the breeze was a reminder of cooler days to come. I especially like walking in the early morning and enjoy  watching the sun coming up turning everything a light gold and the clouds have a pink tinge color reflecting the suns rays.
 The garden is putting on the yellow, gold , red and purple show right now. We had a couple good rains this week and the garden is perking up.  I hate it when everything is hot and dry and just gives up.  I can't water enough to make it look like it does after a good soaking rain.

" Dear Carolyn and Dave,
What a wonderful place to spend our anniversary weekend! The lake, your beautiful gardens, the peace and tranquility of the house and the then there was the treat of seeing Natalie! Your breakfast and your company are the final touch. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.
We'll see you again."

We are looking forward to some cooler temps this weekend and next week.  All the summer flowers are starting to wilt and everyone wants it to rain.  It's hard to keep up with the watering in the flower gardens. A good soaking rain would really help.
This summer has been the best one since we have started the inn 7 years ago.  Maybe all the good word of mouth and repeats are paying off. Plus if you check out the pictures on the web site all the pictures of the gardens , house and surrounding lake and mountains.

Dave and Carolyn,
We really enjoyed our 3 nights at Arbor House. It was a perfect getaway for us.The breakfast , the beautiful home and gardens,the spa shower, it all is a testimony to your creativity and hospitality.
