Last on our list of resorts that day was an old and well known establishment.
New England is full of quirky places like this.
With a nice big porch…
And a nice big view…
It was a pleasant spot to end the day.
Charming…
Cozy…
And full of antiques….
It was instantly welcoming.
I can’t say it any better than that.
The bar.
Oh, stuff it Dorothy.
You know us better by now.
But amusing sign aside…
The mushroom risotto cake appetizer left a lot to be desired, as did the cranberry gin fizz.
A definite meh.
We only stayed for one round and then headed into the gift shop… where I saw a wine tag that made me laugh.
As well as…
Are you ready for this?
A bucket of ducks!
Christ on a cracker….enough with the rubber ducks.
This was getting creepy.
Bidding farewell to the hotel, and the ducks….
It took all I could do to convince the husband he could not go rummage in the establishment’s old slate roofed barn.
The mere thought of not being able to gather up all the unloved tools and rusted treasures that must be stored in there? Practically ruined his night…
At least the kitchen was open. Too bad the barn wasn’t, I would love to walk around in there.

I’m with hubby and Dan. How could you not love an old barn? Fortunately you have other redeeming qualities, or hubby and I wouldn’t love you (me platonically, of course).

I do love old barns. The rusty and broken old tools they contain? Not so much.

As an old old barn lover to a (relatively) young old barn lover, I apologize for my mistake. As for the old tools, remember that they were young once too, so I hope you will at least show them respect. Remember, tools have feelings too

I see your point. And they’re free to have all the feelings they want…. as long as they do it in someone else’s barn. Ours is bursting!

So, your perfect hotel would be a giant porch with a bar on it?

…and it’s gotta be well-stocked (the bar) with a grill perhaps, and comfortable seating.

They’ve filled the closets, the basement, the garage, the shed, the baby barn and the giant barn. Enough already!

I think you were well within your rights to burn that barn down to the ground if that’s what it took to keep him out of it!
