I bet that was a lot of fun. My husband & I have often thought of doing that same thing over the years, buying a B&B or renovating an old house to turn it into one & make our retirement years fun. My husband has worked in the motel industry for many, many years so he has the experience & I love cooking! It would be interesting meeting new people from all over and getting to know them, maybe even making new friends to boot! What an adventure that must be :-) <br /><br />Thanks for the author interview! I love meeting new-to-me writers, learning of their journey in both life and writing. Thank you also for the book giveaway.<br /><br />Trixi in ORTrixi https://www.blogger.com/profile/03116805265841796307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12021813.post-22387311644712478352016-05-18T10:49:32.750-07:002016-05-18T10:49:32.750-07:00Becky: I like Esther too, and have toyed with the ...Becky: I like Esther too, and have toyed with the idea of fictionalizing that one too.

I had a chance to visit England last year, and even though it is an English speaking country there were lots of unfamiliar things to figure out. Unsettling, sometimes.
