Progress on Bailey Island

The past week has been quite nice. The snow banks are melting, ice is melting, you can even see grass in spots. Days are longer, and the air has a feel of spring. Of course, winter is not officially over for another 32 days!

I just went up to the Inn to meet a carpet man, to replace carpet in one of the rooms. Most of our renovations and repairs are done, and the rooms look fresh and bright!

Work continues on the Bailey Island bridge reconstruction. They are removing the asphalt and some of the granite blocks. This is an interesting project to watch....first the building of the temporary bridge, now the taking apart of the historical cribstone bridge. It is a huge project!

Reservations continue to come in for our lovely little Inn here on Bailey Island. We are all thankful for that. We will open the first weekend in April, and look forward to seeing our regular guests as well as meeting some new ones.

Will keep you updated on any news here on Bailey Island!

All for now, Sue
