Greetings Inngoers Reader,
Wasn't it just yesterday we were wishing each other a Happy 2005? So ends another warp-speed year . . .
All of us at BBOnline hope that Christmas brings you the enduring blessings of family, friends and faith, and we wish you peace, good fortune and good cheer in the New Year.
New Orleans update: Several of our New Orleans member inns are back in business, having suffered little if any damage because of their higher ground location in the French Quarter. Happily, they are once again welcoming guests. Click to see the Hurricane Status page.
In this issue, we'll review Christmas and New Year's Specials, and revisit Winter Specials. Plus, join us below to see the most visited category of our Innkeeper Tested and Guest Approved Recipes®.
