Bed and Breakfast


We were able to sneak away Saturday night to a Bed and Breakfast, as a celebration of our upcoming silver wedding anniversary. Since we're not ones to plan lavish celebrations, this was perfect for us.

We headed to Duluth, of course, and that way we were also able to visit Katie. We took her and her friend to a Tai buffet lunch before heading over to tour the Glensheen Mansion and then settle in at the AG Thomson House. This was our second stay at the AG Thompson House and it was once again, wonderful.

We had dinner at an Italian restaurant, followed by homemade chocolate chip cookies at the house, and then watched some late night movies. We even had a taste of a bottle of champagne from our wedding, twenty five years ago. A taste was all we could manage, though. Twenty five years is a bit long for champagne to age and it's taste reminded me of some not so good cooking wine. But, it was a fun thing to try.

Another part of the charm of staying at a bed and breakfast, is being able to meet and chat with other folks staying there. One couple at our table was celebrating their 43rd wedding anniversary, which was very cool.

I'll try to post a more complete set of photos later, right now I'm having a heck of a time getting them to upload!
