La Prochaine Saison

Tomorrow marks the start of our third B&B season.

Not that season two actually stopped,

we've had guests steadily for months, but,
I do think of Spring as a new beginning...

and since we are booked solid this week,

it seems to be the appropriate mark for La Prochaine Saison.

Many of our guests have been attracted to our location

partly because of the River Oust.

Walkers, photographers, artists and bicycle enthusiasts

from all around the world

have taken advantage of this lovely stretch of water!

Although no one currently resides at what was once
the lock keepers house,
the garden is obviously well tended
and perhaps the most picturesque spot
in our village.

When we started our B&B in 2006,
we didn't really know what to expect,
what would be satsifying
or difficult,
or, *gasp*,
if we would be any good at it!

Turns out we have had more fun than we anticipated!
Weather permitting and motor operating,
our guests enjoy cruising in our 1928 Chrysler,
fondly known as Emma.

The most difficult part of operating a B&B
is having to say good-bye to our guests.
Fortunately, many of our guests return often
and all agree to a photo for the
Le Ruisseau B&B scrapbook!
