Vermont Innkeeper Blog

This is the first blog I have ever written. This is also the first Inn I have ever owned and operated. Between the two I have a lot to learn. My hope is that readers might be interested in the daily workings of a Vermont Inn, the trials and tribulations of owning and maintaining a circa 1865 homestead which includes eight acres of land, the joy of meeting new friends, the fears of starting a new business and everything else that goes along with this venture. I've learned quite a bit about accounting, marketing, the Internet, laundry, bed making, amenities, cleaning products... shall I go on? My hope is that you might learn something along the way as well.

My posts will include personal stories, goings on at the Inn, tips and tricks of the trade, etc. Please feel free to ask any questions about innkeeping. If I can't answer them I will find someone who can.

My next blog will be titled " What's that smell?" As an innkeeper your nose gets acquainted with many orders, most good, but some... well, I've got some great stories to say the least!
