Porch time is coming.....


Things are moving along, yet slower than anticipated, but it's going to be beautiful. Guests to Thurston House bed & breakfast in Maitland, north of Orlando, will be able to spend hours relaxing and visiting on this all newly refurbished porch. Hopefully my next post with photo will be much different!!!

Nothing like a fresh coat of paint to make an old house look fresh and new! Thurston House, a bed & breakfast in the Orlando area, is getting better than ever and will be reopening for guests very soon!

The porch saga continues....


Work is continuing on our beautiful Thurston House front porch. The sky blue ceiling was painted today so they are making great progress. I just got paint to refresh all the porch furniture in anticipation for our grand reopening....keep tuned!

What's happening at Thurston House?


Our beautiful Thurston House, an Orlando area bed and breakfast, is getting a much needed face lift to the front wrap around porch. This lakefront setting has been the location for many discussions through the years, and lots of world problems have been solved over a glass of wine here. To handle all of this work, Thurston House is temporarily closed...difficult to get inside with no porch floor! Look for our grand reopening BY 11/7. It will be better than ever. Come and help us break in the new porch.
