Fine Jewelry Repair at the Holladay
 House
 
Have you met Sharon's dad?  He's the cute quiet guy with the schnazzy hat:

 

 Sharon's Dad :)

 
That quiet guy has over 40 years of fine jewelry repair skills under his belt.  Having recently retired from his jewelry repair business on 47th St in NYC, he now has his home shop open for business.
 
Bring Mother's old bracelet and Grandma's old pin and have Sharon's dad take a peek while you're here.  He can even clean your engagement diamond in a day!
 
(Appointments preferred: just ask Sharon.)
Trackside Deli and Cafe
 
 By golly, Main Street has added another restaurant to its mix: the Trackside Deli and Cafe.
    
Located "trackside," Trackside boasts Boars Head meats and cheeses, thick rye bread, entree salads and some darn good cafe foods.  And all at quite a reasonable price.
 
So locate yourself on the right side of the tracks and consider this restaurant another great place to eat on Main Street.
 

Inn Improvements in Full Swing!
  
Currently we:
 
* just completed the VA native plant garden off the side porch steps (view photos here)
 
* are continuing our landscaping project down the left side of the house where we've got berry bushes planned,
 
* have Montpelier masons working on repointing the right side of the house,
 
* have a Montpelier antique window expert restoring more windows on the right side of the house.
 
We've learned A TON about a lot, so ask us any questions while you're here!
