Temporary Innkeeper...

So I'm watching this place up here in Jim Thorpe for the family that owns it...fantastic people! My family has been staying here for years (usually our Mother's Day weekend getaway), and we've become pretty friendly with the family. They are wonderful people who have adopted 2 boys and have recently become proud parents to a 17-week old puppy. She's adorable, but she's giving Jack a run for his money (she likes to nip him on his face/neck...but he tells her off when he gets tired of it). Got here around 9pm last night and helped them get ready to leave today. Took them to the airport in Allentown (I drove a 15-passenger van...and didn't kill myself or anyone else!) and got back here around 5pm. Lots to do when I got back, and walked the pups along the canal (got caught in the pouring rain!), and now we're having some 'quiet' time watching BBC. I'm pooped! I love it up here though...I feel so at home when I come here. It's so beautiful, and rural, and peaceful. It's gonna be a full house this weekend (including about a dozen firemen/policemen, thank you very much!). Should be fun and interesting! Hopefully I'll have some good stories...
