Road Trip - The Woods Inn

Arrived at the Adirondack Fairway Bed & Breakfast to find our host, Bruce and Margie O'Hara sitting on the porch having a Budweiser. His in a pilsner glass and hers in a koozie. They invited up on the porch and after Bruce got another chair he offered Joan a wine. While Margie went to get Joan a glass of Riesling, I got myself a Coke from our cooler. We made our introductions. Margie left for a meeting and Bruce had another beer.

Bruce helped us I with our luggage and show us our room. The only stipulation was you had to remove your shoes before entering the house. There were slippers provided for your convenience. We shunned the slippers. Joan wore her Birenstocks and I went with socks.

We freshen up and then went to The Woods Inn (O'Hara's suggestion) for dinner. Arriving at the Woods Inn and unable to find the entrance went around front and came in the back door. The hostess took our name and we went and sat on the porch and rocked away looking out over Fourth Lake for 10 minutes. The hostess then sat us on the enclosed porch.

Our waitress, Lily, brought us water and took our order. Joan had American Chicken Pot Pie. I ordered a corn/lobster soup and Sole filled with crab meat and lobster. Joan's pot pie has a nice crust and was served very hot. At first she had difficulty finding the chicken but once forking around it was there but perhaps not in abundance. The surprised on my platter was the vegetable of the day, honey julienne carrots. We both agreed the carrots were scrumptious.

After dinner we walked the grounds.
Returning to the B&B, Joan read a book. After reading for awhile I turned in while Joan stay and visited with our hosts joining them for a wine.
