Every year on or around our anniversary, BNH and I go away on an overnight to a bed and breakfast. Due to graduation parties, the ACT test, and working weekends, we were not able to go on June 9 or even after that. So earlier this week we stole away when a couple of the bigguns' were here to stay with the couple of lil'uns. It was perfect. We have been staying at our favorite place for several years now, but this year we both wanted to go somewhere new. After struggling to find the right spot (and one that didn't serve corn flakes for breakfast!), we providentially stayed at The Speckled Hen Inn. While more pricey than we usually do, we were not disappointed!
Our upstairs room was spacious and had access to the balcony.
The owners have worked hard to create several spots to sit and be still. We tried out them all as we were wanting quiet, refreshing time. BNH's favorite was a metal red chair that he sat and read in. I enjoyed the bench right in front of the sheep pen. Full of sun and a great place for reading and praying. I also watched the sheep move in a group across the pasture to graze and then move back to the shade always in a group.
Two lllamas also resided in the pen.
This guy was kinda sassy and didn't want his picture taken.
Here is where breakfast came from. Delicious eggs and amazing breakfasts. I wished I would have photographed them! There were 3 courses (we skipped lunch both days) and Bob and Pat kindly made it gluten free for me. The Coconut Basmati Rice Pudding was to die for!
I hope we get the oppotunity to be blessed by another stay here.
