B&B traction... and let's compare

Our luck with guests just keeps amazing us. We're so fortunate. Sorry I haven't written in a little while, but the B&B is keeping us hopping.

Oh, when we think back and remember people telling us we were crazy to think travellers would want to visit such a remote place... we're sure glad we didn't listen to them. And we're sure glad we followed our tug. Like any business, it takes time to get some traction, but we're pleased with our progress so far and it seems our guests are, too. You can read the two latest entries in our Guestbook here.

Okay, as I was helping myself to some cilantro and lettuce just steps from our back door, I realized I haven't shown an update on how things are growing since we transformed this contained space from a hot tub to an herb garden... thought I'd show you. The first picture is the 'before' picture... and then look at the difference in the second picture. The  LOVE this garden.

I had transplanted some aloe vera plants and they turned all brown and looked like they might now make it. But then, with a little time, they sprung to life and now are green and flowering. Can you see the lovely red flowers shooting out from their middle? I had no idea that the aloe flowered this way. I love just coming out and snipping off what I need and use it in my cooking. I try not to take it for granted.
