Mom Always Liked You Best
Saturday, August 22nd, 2009If you are like my Inn, a good bottle of wine or me, you have a little age on you. That makes us a little unique in the world.
We also lived through the original reality TV, when the only Big Brother was a book. Shows like Rowan & Martin’s Laugh In & The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour were our reality. To get Variety in your programs you didn’t have to hit a button on the remote, you watched a Variety Show. We heard a few good jokes, a few good songs, and most likely a little sarcasm.
Well you can relive part of your past at the Stoughton Opera House on Sunday November 15th, when Tommy and Dick grace the stage with their “The Smothers Brothers Show, An Intimate Evening with Tom and Dick”
“The Smothers Brothers have been described as comedic treasures, comic geniuses, rare, original and peerless.” Tickets for the show are only $60, but I think they are priceless.
While you are out enjoying yourself, why not extend your enjoyment and your weekend with a night at the Naeset Roe Inn a bed and breakfast. Just three blocks from the Opera House, the Inn is known for its homey relaxing atmosphere and owner Carl Povlick’s 4 course breakfast. But don’t call me a chef, even if I have 40 years in the restaurant business. “I’m just a DGC (damn good cook).”
So call the Stoughton Opera House Box Office at 608-877-4400 to get your tickets for The Smothers Brothers Show and go online to www.naesetroe.comand book your room for the show in Stoughton Wisconsin.
a Staycation idea!
Thursday, July 9th, 2009A Staycation is what a lot of you are doing this year. Taking a guick overnight or two night trip, not to far away from home, just to get away and do something differant. Instead of that 10 day trip to the Rocky Mountains. It isn’t going to break the bank and you’re away from reality for a while.
Thnik about visiting Stoughton WI and experiance all the historyof this Norwegian founded city. Architeture to art are all around. Shop Main Street then grab a pizza and a movie. Classes are another option. All this is only walking distance from Naeset-Roe Inn. The Victorian bed and breakfast in StoughtonWI. A show, dinner, a great bed and a fabulous breakfast. What could be better?
Looking for something to do after the summer? Think about an Over Night Staycation to Stoughton WI and Naeset-Roe Inn. Pair it with a concert at The Stoughton Opera House and dinner at Laz Bistro.
You’ll be staying in a quite Victorian B&B and you can walk to the theater and bistro. You don’t have to worry about having a second glass of wine or a night cap before you come back to the inn.
