There’s a new vehicle in the driveway at The _Algonquin_House. It kinda matches the house, doesn’t it?

So, a last minute cancellation of the concert …. But I have a full table of food. Feel free to stop by The _Algonquin _House for bbq and some fun, with or without the music.

It’s been awhile since I posted … but I need to get the word out that The_Algonquin_House will be open for a sneak peak of the renovations during this summer’s summer concerts in Towne Park. We’ll kick off the season with a BBQ during the first one on July 10. But you’re welcome to stop by before, during or after any of the concerts dates from July 10-August 28.

This week, while prepping for my knee surgery, I took the time to decorate for fall... Always love how looks decorated for the seasons/holidays. Will snap some more pictures when I get back home. (And this is one of my favorite rooms renovated in the house. Still need to paint that red dresser though. … but don’t worry, it will still be a bold pop of color!)

Been slowed down on repairs this year due to some issues with my knees. Went ahead and had knee replacement on left knee on 9/4 and had right knee replacement this morning! Hoping to be back to work on in 2025 and open for business no later than 2026.

I haven't posted on in awhile. Threw a last-minute party in July when threw a car show and music/beer tent in the parking lot next door. Good music in my yard is always a reason for a party! Here are the belated photos... And Trader Joes even had a wine with cars on the bottle!
