Hi, Tom here. Just thought I would check in to let everyone know how beautiful it is here this time of year. The weather is great for biking, golfing or just hanging out in New Hope and Lambertville. There is a Scarecrow Exihibit at Peddler’s Village going on through Halloween. And speaking of Halloween, the merchants in New Hope are going to dress up and hand out treats to kids and anyone that dresses up – Yum!!! This weekend on Saturday and Sunday, September 26 and 27 the 16th Annual Arts and Craft Festival is being held in New Hope.

Also, don’t forget about the Mid Week Special that is posted on our website. Hope to see you soon!

Hi Everyone!  Hope you had a good week.  The weekend is almost here and I wanted to let you know some places to go this weekend to hear good music.  You might want to check out The Mansion Inn which has live music every Saturday at 9 pm. The Logan Inn has open mic every Thursday and live music every Friday and Saturday. Bowman’s Tavern has live entertainment everyday except Tuesday. You might want to grab a cold beer at Triumph Brewery and hear some great music every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Last but not least you can always hang at Jon and Peter’s and Havana right in the heart of New Hope to check out some great music. If you want to know what individual artists are playing this weekend you can always ask the great staff at the inn. I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hi!  My name is Tom (sometimes Tommy or Thomas if I’m bad).  My mommy is Carolyn who owns the inn with Uncle Bob.  They have asked me to post a blog to let you know what’s going on around the inn and around the area each week.  They also want me to post recipes, so if you have any requests just let me know!

The first thing I want to tell you is we have two new sheep!  My mommy named them Karen and Kristin who are her sister and niece.  Everybody thinks they look like goats, but believe me they’re sheep!

A little later this week, I’ll let you know if there is anything happening this weekend.
