How to survive the Polar Vortex!
The Polar Vortex…..Ohh what an ugly thought! But the cold weather will not last forever, and it isn’t cold inside by the fire with a glass of wine (or coffee). Plus, the weather is warming, why it’s to get to 40 degrees this weekend! My goodness, break out the shorts!!!!

Just because the weather outside is frightful, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy yourself in Lancaster County. Here are a few things going on in the area that will help you to escape the winter blues….We will keep the home fires burning for you at the B&B while you enjoy the activities. Warmth, comfort and friendship await you here!
