Innkeeping can be all-consuming , and we wanted to take time out to wish Happy Birthday to our friend in St. Louis Missouri who is celebrating her 30th birthday Saturday, February 27.  What do you wish someone who lists her interests as prime numbers and eggplant?  Better luck next year.  To a talented young woman, her faithful companion – Bear, and her manly sidekick – John - best wishes for a knock-out year.

All the best – Chris and Dana.
