Take 2

This past weekend Brandon and I ran away to Brown County for a long weekend vacation. We left the computer at home and were thrilled to discover that we had limited cell phone service while in town and no service at Russell's Roost, our B&B.

For those that know us and remember, this is the same location we visited for our 1 year anniversary. I am proud to say that this years experience was a lot more enjoyable and less eventful than the last. The weather was perfect with NO rain, there was NO boil water advisories, and NO illness befell on either one of us!

We stayed at the same b&b, in the same room, and were excited to see the owners again. Dana is an amazing cook and it was comforting to know that her LARGE breakfasts would keep us from having to eat lunch. Friday night we visited a local coffee shop, The Fig Tree, for a free play that Dana was doing sound effects for; we laughed the night away while sipping some really good hot chocolate. We spent Saturday and Sunday perusing town for Christmas gifts, laughing, people watching, and just hanging out with one another. We made sure to stop by the Marionette Theatre this time and discovered that the local General Store has the best Pumpkin Bread we've ever tasted!

The only thing we didn't care for was the restaurant food. We learned that we don't like any of the local cuisine; although, the 2 Italian places ROCK we have yet to find a restaurant, other than the Italian ones, that we like.

Before we left we made sure to pick up some of their signature Blackberry wine, for when I'm done breast feeding, and came home Monday afternoon. We made it through Louisville before rush hour and spent the rest of the day relaxing at home with Tiko. It was an INCREDIBLE weekend and we both agree it was one of the best vacations we've taken.

Need a close and fun weekend get away, Brandon and I highly recommend Nashville, IN. Stay at Russell's Roost and be sure to stop by Calzone Jone's for dinner.
