Replicator at The Craftsman B&B

Do we have a replicator at The Craftsman Bed & Breakfast? Well, as close to one as I have ever seen. Yesterday, Mike was clearing off his desk and ran across a note. It was a wine book one of our guests recommended we read and thought our other wine geek guests would like to read. So Mike went on the Internet and found the book, Oldman's Guide to Outsmarting Wine. He ordered it at 12:23 PM. The book arrived at our post office today and was in the house before 11:00 AM. Inconceivable!

So when the Internet first started big with on-line shopping and EBAY, Mike thought about the replicator. Every house should have one. You order a snorkel, mask and flippers and out they come, like paper out of a printer.

For us, living in the tiny beach town of Pacific City, Internet shopping is a great deal for us. We don't have to drive to Salem or Portland to get things. We order on-line and it shows up at our doorstep, or the post office a block away. This has saved so many car trips, fuel and time. Our coffee for the espresso maker comes 2nd day air from Switzerland.

That's not the only instant gratification that happens here at The Craftsman B&B. We always tell our guests to let us know if they need anything, and we deliver. So if you want to be pampered, have your wishes come true, come stay with me at the B&B. If Mike can't get you what you need, just whisper your wish in my ear, dogs have special connections too.
