Guests arrived and as they got out of their cars I greeted them - "Be careful where you step, the dog left a present near there!" They came an hour early and I was still in the kitchen preparing things for the next day. I really WAS going to get the doggy doo before they arrived! After settling in, they came upstairs to visit and we found a chickadee in the room. It flew around the vaulted ceilings and disappeared for the night. The next morning it showed up on the table...on plates, in glasses, perching on silverware! It finally allowed us to usher it outside! 
This prompted a breakfast clean-up BEFORE breakfast! Then...the trek. (Check out our website for trekking details...www.LlamaKisses.com) Guests asked for a slow, easy trek. It went very well until we were returning and right next to the culvert GreyT acted up, spooking Dez, who was in front of her. Dez bolted sideways and with a hip to hip blow almost knocked our guest into the water! All survived! The grand finale? Car keys were lost upon departure and we (guests included) spent an hour pulling apart the house...every nasty dust bunny escapee was found...but not the keys! Yep, we are NOT a LINEN & LACE B&B! :) But, our guests have already booked a return visit! :)
The B&B has a facebook page as well as this blog. One of our past guests posted this under my Linens & Lace post. Thought I would share it on here!

Mankind has created many wonderful things. Paintings, sculptures, music, buildings, cities and, yes, linen and lace. There is nothing wrong with these things; they all have their place.
God created forests, mountains, rivers, animals, insects and a host of other things. In fact, He created the whole universe and everything in it including the materials mankind uses to create his things. I feel closest to God when I am amongst the things He created that mankind hasn't spoiled. Linen and lace are fine for weddings and such. To me, chickadees are far more beautiful and I have no problem sharing my breakfast with them.
I feel sorry for those people who can’t understand the peace and beauty that comes when walking with one of God’s creatures through a forest. Those that can’t understand this are like a deaf person trying to appreciate music or a blind person trying to appreciate art except it’s worse because the creatures and forest are God’s art.
