Yesterday a team of 5 men came and started on the HVAC in the B&B. The team already installed two new units outside and a lot of hardware inside the house. So far so good and hopefully end next week we finally get it cool in the B&B.

Tonight we have Patty and Brad over for dinner. Our first dinner with guests here in the USA. We hope that many more will follow:-)

Today it is also the 190 years ago that my grandmother's grandfather, captain B.P. Jansen was born. In 1864 he was captured during the Civil War by the Northern navy and brought to trial for being a so called ‘blockade runner’. In Federal Court he was cleared of all charges, but he already lost his ship and cargo.

Because he traveled from New Orleans to Washington DC, and thus came through Virginia, felt like mention this fact.

Have a great weekend everyone!
