Happy New Year! This was Cardinal Cottage back in January of 2019! Loved this picture, the sky was so blue the day after the snow. No snow now and before we know it the street will be lined with cherry blossoms.
Taking reservations for 2023! Call and leave a message or text Betty at (863) 559-5781.
