A WARM SPELL

Posted on December 10, 2007 by Inn on Mill Creek

Being from Ohio, we’ve come to expect a little blustery, chilly, snowy weather in December. Well, here it is, December 10, and it’s 75 degrees and sunny here in western North Carolina. We saw snow on some of the Craggy Mountains above the town of Black Mountain over Thanksgiving and we were sure that more of the white stuff was on its way to us. But we’ve been pleasantly surprised by the pleasantly warm weather. We have the windows open today, which seems bizarre for us northerners.

SHAKE, RATTLE AND ROLL

The beginning of December has been more exciting than we had anticipated. At around 6am this morning, Brigette was fast asleep with a couple of innpugs keeping her warm. Dave was in the office on the internet, reading up on the soapstone wood stoves that we have in the house. [As an aside, Dave is a morning person… Brigette, ehh, not so much].

TERRACE PAINTING BEGINS

You may have noticed on the availability schedule that the Terrace room is blocked off for the next two weeks. That’s because we’ll be doing some painting. Serious painting.

DINING AREA FACE LIFT

Posted on November 28, 2007 by Inn on Mill Creek

The dining area of the kitchen got a new coat of paint last week…we’re really happy with the results. The new color really brings out the stone behind the wood stove and looks great as you walk in to the kitchen from the solarium. It’s like a little piece of outdoors has come inside. The color is River Bank by Behr.
