APPLES B&B

We spent Thanksgiving in the local mountains at a B&B with family ~ and it was perfect.

Day temps were in the upper 50's, crisp and clear.  Nights dipped down into the 30's, but we were bundled up and comfy.

No snow.






 The Innkeeper makes a fabulous traditional Thanksgiving dinner for all the guests, 
and then matches it with a huge breakfast the next morning.

We learned our lesson last year,
and forced ourselves not to eat every single thing
on our plate!
 


The wooded grounds are rustic and chippy,
dotted with whimsy


 During the day the kids "tubed" down the mountain on 
 man-made snow.
Evenings were spent in the village
for the tree lighting and arrival of Santa on a sleigh,
 dinner out, a movie and a bit of shopping


our adorable nephews (10 and 7)

 (this little guy is never without a hat)

 even the pooches were in festive attire


It was a wonderful way to officially start 
the holiday season


Counting My Blessings,
xo Susy

  3. Susy, the B&B looks delightful and to get away as a family is a great idea. No cooking just enjoying each other. xo, olive
