Today was just plain fun! In celebration of our 25th wedding anniversary John and I decided to take a little road trip. First we made it down to Toano, VA to visit and have lunch with Dr. & Mrs. Glenn Plott (aka: Glenn & Sheila). Glenn is the minister that married us back in February 1985 and he is John's spiritual mentor. We yakked and ate and had the best time with them. Even tho we were there a couple of hours, the time flew & it went by so quickly.
We then found our way to Jamestown to catch the ferry and ride across to Surry, VA. The ferry ride was fun and made John recall trips on the Staton Island Ferry, NY. We left the ferry smiling and with a little seagull "poop" on the windshield.
We checked in at the Surry Carriage House Restaurant & Inn and tried to nap a little, but after about an hour, we hopped in the van to check out the surroundings. Surry is very quaint....and quiet. We did find a small church if John should ever want a "smaller congregation" in the future! (see photo) Ha!
As the sun went down we enjoyed a quiet old fashioned meal with real homemade yeast rolls. We talked about heading back to the small room. John, who had been up since 4am was ready to "hit the hay" and I would sit and watch TV. After we went over that scenerio in our minds, we both looked at each other and thot "why are we going to this tiny room, when we could be enjoying our own home with a fire & king size bed! So, we headed home and were very excited to get there.
It was a very special day.....very special!

I'm so sorry you were dissatisfied with the Inn, we do our best to make our customers comfortable. Unfortunately our King Room is on the second level and you had requested a bottom floor. Had I known you prefered a King Room I would have been more than happy to prepare it for you. Thank you for visiting our little town. Happy Anniversary and we wish you the best in the year ahead.
