These doors have a mind of their own!


Hello Wednesday (already???!!!!) The porches are coming right along. We’ve also got a carpenter working on the installation of all the door knobs (every SINGLE door has a personality of its own), peep holes, and locks. He told me stories of his time at Woodstock and missing Jimmy Hendrix play the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ because he had to pull his car out of mud so he could make it back to work (where he was promptly fired for missing Monday). Good good stories.
We have also been working like mad on furniture, some bed platforms are arriving tomorrow, we’ve got final painting going on, and the emergency fire ladders for each room arrived yesterday. It’s all those little things.
Coming together!!!!
Summer Drives in Vermont





One of my absolute favorite things to do in summer is to wander the green tunneled Vermont roads. Yesterday’s high humidity made for a cool evening and gorgeous sunset. I drove out of town across the covered bridge and headed to Claremont, NH to the grocery store. These were some of the scenes within 5 minutes from the Inn. There are miles and miles and miles of beautiful drives. You could pick a few for your weekend at the Snapdragon or pack a week’s worth! We are eager to share some of our favorites with you.
Weekend updates
How was your weekend? We were busy on various projects. The front and back porches have been prepped, primed, and ready for nice bright white paint. We made some excellent headway on more furniture rehabbing. The website has some beautiful new photos , check it out here and we’ve been working on the in-room technologies.
New Painted Rooms
The public bathroom on the first floor as well as the little alcove off the entry have been painted and are looking great. It’s funny, we chose to paint the bathroom Cottonfield which is the same color as Rooms 7 & 1 and looks more yellow upstairs but looks so much greener next to green–duh
Love the transforming nature of colors.
Our lists are long and it’s time to get to crossing things off!
Have a Wonderful Weekend!
This sums it up
It has been really busy and very humid and hot. You know when there is a lack of pictures to post that we are busy bees working away. The furniture for Room 7 and 5 are complete with 8 well on its way. The entry has been final coated as well as the public bathroom and little alcove. Now it is honestly bits of trim here and there and touch ups and then the public spaces are done which are finicky and time consuming but we are close. We have systems ordered, bedding ordered and the list goes on and on. I promise I will get some more interesting pictures today!
