A few of my favorites will be presented.  Kathryn Vaughn at Main Street Flowers.  You may recognize this name from Madison Radio.  She hosts a wonderful show on Magic 98 every Sunday morning.  Several of her pieces are on display at Naeset Roe Inn.  Greg Rodriguez at Yaraha River Co-Op, is an outstanding painter.  He just finished a painting of Naeset Roe Inn for me that is hanging in the West Parlor.  Mona Semerau is a wonderful silversmith that does such delicate work.  Stop and see her at Vincenzo’s and have a glass of wine while you are there.

So stop in and see some new art during the Main Street Stoughton Art Walk Friday, July 23rd  5-9pm.  If you can’t make it, most of these artists are displayed at other times in these shops.  Come and see them during a stay at Naeset Roe Inn.  The inn is one block from Main Street and a great walk any day of the week.

With all the great weather that Madison has been having it was inevitable that it would move south to Stoughton.  Well it did, and it hit us hard.  83 degrees on April 1.  No Foolin’.  Today it is just as nice.  We could use a little rain though.  Only had about 3/4 inch last month.  But we don’t want as much as some of my friends in Rhode Island had.

Being a divorced mother has provided her with a quick wit and a realistic look at life. Her observation of the world around her is outrageous! Blended together makes for a very funny lady. Audiences around the country are praising this hilariously funny lady. Kathleen is one of the funniest female comics to hit the industry in years. (more…)

A 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.

The Stoughton Opera House has released a sneak peek of the up coming season (more…)

Ham or bacon, seafood for breakfast, socialism or democracy, the best quilt store Saving Thyme and the perfect place to buy a wedding gift Clock Tower Gifts.  These are some of the subjects that came up in spirited conversation over breakfast this last weekend at Naeset-Roe Inn in Stoughton, WI.  One guest made the comment that they have never had breakfast last 1 ½ hours and enjoyed it so much.

It made me think, “Do people actually read this blog and if they do what do they think?”, “What has happened to conversations?”  A friend and shop owner released her first email newsletter this week.  Scentimints a bath, body and candle scent shop, where I get all my candles from, has a forum in the newsletter where people can make comments.  So I went and made a comment about what a great job she did on the newsletter and what great products she has.  Later when I went into the shop to pick up some things, she made the comment, “thanks for putting something on the forum, maybe others will realize that it isn’t just for reading.”  The conversation went the way I was thinking earlier, what do people really think, and why don’t they tell us.

We as small business owners can only meet your expectations if we know them.  Don’t be afraid to let someone know what you want or if something isn’t quite right.   Don’t forget to compliment them when something is good also.  I as a B&B owner check light bulbs and drains regularly but if a bulb goes out while you are here let me know so I can replace it, or if a drain is running slow let me know so I can fix it.  It’s the same with this blog.  If you like what you read make a comment at the bottom.  If you would like to hear more about a subject make a comment and I’ll let you know more.  I know that it takes a little longer to write a comment than it does to speak one but this is the forum that I’m using and I’d like to know what you think.

What do you think?

Well spring is coming to Naeset-Roe Inn.  the crocus are finally starting to bloom and other spring bulbs are starting to peak their heads out of the ground.  This means that Summer isn’t far away and that you should be looking to book your staycation at Naeset-Roe Inn bed and breakfast soon  You don’t have to go far to have a get away.
