Big Mill Getaway

July 15, 2010 by Aliesha

My darling husband and I took a little getaway to Big Mill, a local Bed & Breakfast earlier this week. We wanted to have a retreat in the middle of our crazy summer, and through all the busyness we have had going on lately (out-of-state travels, car troubles, etc.), this day on our calendar has helped keep us sane! We had a wonderfully relaxing and restful time together.
The SD card that was in my camera has apparently corrupted, so I wasn’t able to take any pictures while we were there. I stole these from the website!
The sunflowers were in bloom and we could see them from our window!
We stayed in this beautiful suite.
The bedroom was so peaceful and calming!
In addition to the beautiful suite, great views, and delicious breakfast, we also enjoyed a casual walk around the lake in the evening, sipping our coffee on the patio, and relaxing on the hammock outside our door.

We are thankful for the opportunity we had to rest and enjoy time with each other!

    Good for you guys! I think it’s SO important to take some time to catch your breath every now and then, even if it’s not leaving your own town. We’ve done many overnights at local hotels, and they are so refreshing! Sounds like you had a wonderful time…

    How nice to have that little getaway! Even a couple days in a busy summer really helps, doesn’t it. I’m hoping we can do that soon. Glad you had a great time. 🙂
