Colorado Rocky Mountain High

I'll soon be on my way to Colorado to see my daughter and son-in-law. I can't wait. I will have some beautiful pictures to share.
July has kept me very busy and August looks the same. My guests have been so enjoyable. Meeting new people has been a delight I didn't anticipate.
The Poynette Craft and Historic Homes tours is a not to miss event. I made my guests comfortable and enjoyed a quick look. Suzie the Duck days and the Arlington Festival are the second week-end in August. Both have a very nice parade and I hope to participate.
Our NAB (Networking Area Businesses) met again and the recipe this week comes from the host of that meeting. We have new members and I will be hosting the August meeting for an evening meal.
If you are in the area the Columbia County Visitors Bureau is hosting concerts all summer in Portage.

The Fourth of July "already"

It is so much fun to decorate for the holidays. The Bed & Breakfast displayed flags and buntings for the 4th and Mother Nature provided the beautiful weather. Time to kick back and enjoy the brief summer months. I look forward to sharing the Fall and Winter decor with my followers.

The Columbia County Visitors Bureau presented yet another concert in Portage. It was a cool evening but the attendance was still very good. The band was very entertaining and lots of delicious goodies for sale. The B & B will be hosting the August meeting and will be considered for next seasons concert site. What fun!!
