Greetings Inngoers Reader,
As Hurricane Dennis the Less-than-predicted Menace drops some much-needed rain on middle Tennessee, many people's thoughts are turning toward summer vacation. Here's to slowing the pace, to relaxing -- to goofing off just a little!
We hope you'll take time for a summer getaway at a BBOnline member inn!
