Hi to all from Inn at Long Lake!
Summer's end is always bittersweet here in New England. The Summer, with its face-paced, activity-driven buzz softens into cooler, crisp days and colors of change and quietude.
Our Sing Out Summer Sing-a-long Evening with Charles Grindle was enchanting. Charles arrived decked out in a white tuxedo with teal cummerbund and matching bowtie. The lights in the inn's Great Room were turned down to "romance level" (a setting electricians keep quite secret...) and for 3 hours Charles played songs that are true American gems. He seamlessly played from light jazz, classic Gershwin, to some charming bossa nova. Our guests thought it a classy treat and many couples shared a cocktail, held hands, and chatted. We will run this evening again, I promise!!
As Fall (my favorite season) arrives, I am inspired by food even more--the aromas this time of year just seem more profound in the inn! Folks staying in our Adelaire Room always comment the best feeling of waking up from their slumber with the smells of bread or muffins baking filtering into their room.
So, a little break after the busy Summer season for this innkeeper. Still lots of events to plan, recipes to ponder, and guests on their way for Fall Foliage.
I hope you can experience the New England Fall some time soon.
Until next time,
Keith
