CAN YOU CALL IT AN ADVENTURE...?

Hubby and I both took so many photos on our latest adventure that I'll have to divide them up into two or three posts. I think I'll start with the B&B where we stayed, which was an adventure in and of itself. Honestly, you could go there and just never leave the grounds except for food. Although, now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure one could last at least 24 hours on what they feed you for breakfast. Welcome to Eve's Garden, in Marathon, Texas! Does this scream Becky T. Lane, or what?

Private Patios Outside The Rooms, With A View Of Distant Mesas

Below is the atrium garden, which most of the rooms open into. There was also a laundry room and a hospitality room, where one can make a pot of tea or get a cup of coffee to enjoy while waiting for everyone else to wake up.

Then there was the pool...

the firepit/barbecue area...

and the star-gazing rooftop, where pretty much everyone ended their days, guests and hosts alike.

Surprisingly, for a couple of introverts, one of our favorite parts was gathering around the sumptuous breakfast table each morning in the main house -- albeit with total strangers -- because all we had to do was sit and listen, to get all the very best tips about where to go and what to see and eat!

Sure, there was the problem with the power going off each afternoon, due to the epic heatwave that hit right as we got there, and the occasional tarantula spotted in the atrium, but hey! Can you really call it an adventure, if nothing ever goes wrong?
