Sisters Enjoy Time Together at The Inn at Stockbridge

Alice & Len Schiller, owner/innkeepers of the Inn at Stockbridge feel that it is an honor to have loyal repeat guests choose to spend their precious time together at the Inn. Patty Fogelstrom and Debbie Perno started coming to the Inn in October 2001. Patty lives in Ct and Debbie lives in Corrales New Mexico. Patty & Debbie first came to the Inn as a gift from Patty's husband Bruce. Patty was recently diagnosed at that time with a rare blood cancer. Each year that Patty and Debbie return to the Inn is a continued celebration of life. They come to the inn each year looking to have a wonderful time together and to celebrate a new year of survival. While at the Inn Patti & Debbie enjoyed massages and wonderful restaurants. They conclude their stay with a dinner at The Red lion Inn where they enjoy the popovers. Debbie played golf at Greenock Country Club in the brisk autumn air. One would never know the amount of pain Patty is in. She thanks her children Bryan & Christie for their constant support as well as her devoted husband Bruce. Debbie visits Patty in the spring and fall each year and the sisters look forward to their special time together.
Debbie & her husband Tony own Case Work Technologies in New Mexico. Patty's husband Bruce owns Last Mile Communications, a consulting company for cable companies. Bruce is fortunate enough to work from home to be there for Patty.
Its our sincere pleasure to spend time with Patty & Debbie and to share in their journey. We plan to see them the same time next year

Wonderful People visit the Inn at Stockbridge

I must have said it hundreds of times but its worth repeating. I love Innkeeping because of the guests that pass through our doors. Every season is different bringing different types of guests. The fall brings the most diverse group of people from all over the states, England and places far and near all looking for the beautiful foliage that mother nature brings us each year. Last week we had the pleasure of meeting Kelly & Ray Owen and their Aunt and Uncle Madeline and Stanley Brown. They were the most pleasant interesting people. Kerry and Ray Owen live in Hot Springs National park in Arkansas which they informed us was the first National park in the US. Owen and Kerry are long term friends of Bill Clinton. In fact Kerry dated Bill many moons ago. They have been great friends over many years. Kerry knew back then that Bill Clinton was special and would go on to do great things. He wanted to make the world a better place. They attended both inaugural balls. Owen is a Justice of the Peace in Hot Springs. He was an engineer and a jack of all trades and dabbled in many things. Kerry is a retired English teacher and taught drama and communications. She won the award for teacher of the year. Madeline and Stanley Brown are from Miami Florida Stanley retired from the hotel business. He owned several hotels in Miami and sold the last one 10 years ago.
The Owens and Brown's made visiting the Inn at Stockbridge Bed & Breakfast in the Berkshires part of their New England Fall tour. They love the charm of the New England villages and a and raved about the New England warmth and hospitality. They are also visiting Vermont, New Hampshire and Rhode Island. We are thrilled to have met them and hope they visit us again.

Fall at its Best in the Berkshires

Stockbridge is now experiencing the best fall foliage that I have seen in years. the colors are bright, the weather has been beautiful and life is good in the Berkshires.



The cultural scene is still happening as well. The Berkshire Theatre Festival is featuring Eleanor, a one women play about Eleanor Roosevelt. Shakespeare and Co is offering by Irina Brook and Michael Hammond. This is a world premiere adaption of Oscar Wilde's comical tale from 1887 of a transplanted American family living in a haunted English mansion and the ghastly ghost that grows on them. The show is in the new Elayne P Bernstein Theatre. It is a must see and the theatre is great.

The Barrington Stage Company is offering To Kill a Mockingbird. This is a southern classic and a quintessential American courtroom thriller. It is a powerful exploration of racial injustice, class tensions, courage, compassion and the loss of innocence in the deep south.

Offerings are until the end of October.

Our 14th summer is over

Len & I want to thank all our loyal guests who allowed us to complete fourteen summers in the beautiful Berkshires. It has been an amazing summer. Tanglewood, the Berkshire Theatre Festival, Shakespeare & Co and have all been wonderful. We feel privileged to share the Inn at Stockbridge with you and to enjoy all this beautiful culture in the country.

It is not over, the fall is coming, the leaves will be turning and new guests will be coming to experience fall in New England. It is quite a sight. Come and experience it for yourself. I just finished decorating the Inn for you to enjoy. The corn stalks, mums, pumpkins, cabbages and of course the witches make fall my favorite season. Experience it for yourself.

We just returned from a little holiday in Montreal, Quebec and Vermont. We had a wonderful week and are now prepared for our fall visitors.

Good Morning America started the whistle stop train trip in the Berkshires. James Taylor, Yo Yo Ma more on that tomorrow. What a day it was.
