Greetings from SUNNY Port Ludlow,

Do you feel the energy building towards summer?  We sure do...and hope you'll find a reason to be here soon.

The "chatter" around here is all about the "early spring" and what that means.  Here's some of what that means to us:

The crops are IN - about a month early with an overflowing abundance.  The markets are full of all kinds of spring greens and tulips in every color!  
 

Boaters are out and about - and we haven't even reached Opening Day...and that includes kayaks, Stand-up paddle boarders (still too chilly for me - but many are doing this!) and sailors.  If you've never been to an Opening Day, it is sure to give you pause - even if you are not a boater.  The ceremony is stirring and the tradition filled with what I call "goose bump moments." Who DOESN'T get that feeling with bagpipes? 
Saturday, May 9th is Opening Day in Port Ludlow.

Mother's Day is upon us....and that is a very special time to be at The Fireside.  Join us for brunch - and please make reservations as this event always sells out. Click the Menu below for details: 

Have you heard about Wearable Art? Are you attending the upcoming show in Port Townsend? If so, make it a weekend and stay at the Resort. View details here.

And how about the "buzz" with the US Open?  Only an hour and fifteen minutes from Port Ludlow  - and the attention of the world upon our area for a few days. It is pretty fitting that it ends on Father's Day....are you going?

Lots of events coming up - read on for some of the highlights.

See you around the Inn soon,

P.S.  Here's the photo of the month - Name where this is taken FROM and be the first to do so - you will win a choice of Kayaking or Stand Up Paddle Board for two at the Marina.
