Happy Birthday Robin

-
Today's the day too!

To celebrate, we had a night “not here.” 

Neither of us had spent any real time in the Starved Rock area, and I had found out about the Bayley House Suite. See their site for more information about the history of the house, but we had such a wonderful time, we felt compelled to share…

Randy & Robin have done a fantastic job with the renovation, decoration, and set up for this bed and breakfast. They were very inviting, and we spent some of our evening sharing stories with them by the fire.

They’d also set up for us a private fire pit for our use amid their extremely well put together garden. Our area of the house included a huge bathroom, a nice bedroom, a living room with TV, couch, and dining space, and an enclosed porch complete with sofa, hot tub, and a great view of nature. The decoration throughout was made things feel like home.

My only regret for the trip was forgetting my camera so we can’t share any pictures. Another reason for you to go their website and just one of many reasons for us to go back. Pictures to follow once we do!
