I’m so tired of finding stuff that doesn’t work and needs replaced. Every day it’s something else. A lot of it’s just simple maintenance, but when you encounter something new daily, it gets a bit disheartening.

I think do see a light at the end of the tunnel! Right now we are aiming for a March 1 opening.

Yes, that’s March 1, 2025!

So, we had these two huge trees by the pool, forever shedding, making things hard on Aaron Garlotte, but thanks to Patrick Blake of Southern Tree and Turf, they are now gone!

I guess you know you’re officially grandparents when you graduate to the tiny rocker and the slim Christmas tree! A blessed Christmas to your family from ours!

It’s a good thing I just finished watching my favorite Christmas movie, Die Hard—for which a case could be made is Bruce Willis’s best movie ever, as well as the best action movie ever—because when these guys show up, it’s never a good thing. Unless they happen to be upgrading the Woolmarket infrastructure, which is obviously a good thing! Thanks Sparklight!

Is there a more beautiful place on the planet at this moment? I don’t think so.

In the market for a mattress? Our mattresses come from Brandy at Plush, right here in Woolmarket. No need to go anywhere else!

Nighttime at The Woolmarket Inn definitely has its own vibe. Some say it’s cozy, some say it’s spooky. I say it’s just right!

For those of you interested in our history, here’s a great story!

Our home was featured in a 1994 calendar published by Hancock Bank. We had a copy of June hanging on the wall in one of our bathrooms.

I emailed the marketing department at Hancock-Whitney, and after much searching, they were able to locate a copy of this 30 year-old calendar!

The calendar, in all of its beauty, is shown here:

In D'Iberville, I'm relishing a moment of joy with a delicious chai latte and stuffed waffle alongside truly special people.

What’s your favorite coffee?? ☕️

So here I am watching the sunrise from the front porch of The Woolmarket Inn, just me, the jumping fish, my Merlin app, and the birds, when suddenly it starts to rain…for the first time in weeks, I might add, and I look up, and there is a sunrise rainbow! 🌈

What a way to start a new day! What a way to start a new month!

This bedroom used to have a door on the left side of the fireplace. Then, sometime in the past the opening was closed up, covered with particle board, and painted with chalkboard paint.

This was not really the look we wanted for the room. It was a real head scratcher. We thought about possibly placing an antique door in front of the chalkboard just to hide it.

Then earlier this week I came up with a sneakier solution. I scored the chalkboard with my circular saw and created an accent wall, painting it a light gray color.

Here you can see the deception in progress. If you look closely, you can see where the previous door opening/chalkboard was, but if you didn’t know, I don’t you’d even notice. Once the black particle board was scored and painted, it looks like planking and simply melts into the wall.

The kicker is I did this without Bridey’s permission! 😳 I told the painter she’s either gonna kill me 🔪 or kiss me 💋. I’ll let you guess which one…

No, don’t be afraid, it’s not a gator!

Wow!!

For the first time this summer—and likely many summers—all the string lights over the pool are lit…

Every. Single. One.

It’s a beautiful fall morning here at the landing!
