I had the wonderful opportunity over the weekend to provide a Couple's Retreat dinner for Brian and Bobbi Voss who celebrated their 34th wedding anniversary on March 27.
The pleasant Massachusetts couple enjoyed a candlelight meal in the Spring Suite sitting room of fresh green leaf salad w/handmade croutons, shrimp over linguini w/cream sauce, vanilla ice cream w/chocolate dipped strawberries and sparkling grape juice along with handmade chocolate truffle squares. It was a pleasure talking with them, and I wish Mr & Mrs Voss many more years together. Ted & Nancy Southerland celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on August 14, 2014. I had the pleasure of meeting these two nice people from Adrian, Michigan when they arrived to stay in the Grand Trunk caboose last night. I fixed them an anniversary meal of roasted cornish hen, steamed garden fresh vegetables, black olives, rice, homemade wheat rolls and sparkling grape juice. Later out by the fire they enjoyed chocolate walnut mug cake and coffee. It was wonderful to hear how they met and their life together. I wish them many more years.
For those of you unaware of the News From Nestle Inn blog on Wordpress the decision to move it to Blogger has been made. Whether it was a good decision or not remains to be seen. So, if you would like to visit, please do so.
We are now offering two new package accommodations to the Nestle Inn Bed & Breakfast website. Found on the Information page under "Special Event Packages" there is a Couples Retreat package for those who wish to celebrate time together.
You will also find an Amish Dinner & Overnight Accommodation package for those who are looking for something unique to do. I am working on creating more unique packages to offer guests.

Thank you. ![]() My favorite time of year is spring, and the month of May. Every morning is a treat when I sit at the kitchen table and look out the window upon my world. The much needed rain this morning enhanced the fresh mowed grass and fragrant plum blossoms, with the Grand Trunk caboose in the background. I wish May would last longer than a month. Read all about it here. Our very first article in the newspaper. Thank you to Karen Gruber of the Midland Daily News.
On March 5, 2013 the ground breaking began here at Nestle Inn for the installation of a Grand Trunk caboose owned by Sandra Vining. You can see the photos here of the prep and set. We have a lot of work to make it look presentable. In the meantime, having a caboose as a lawn ornament takes some getting used to. But I think we can manage.
