Drive by any evening, 8-10 p.m., to see the window lighting show progress; we plan to call it the “Mile High Window Light Show,” when it is done, hopefully 4th of July weekend. Things are getting very attractive and romantic at 813 Macon Avenue, Canon City, CO.
Another diverse weekend at the Queen Anne. Afternoon/Lunch Teas brought a number of new guests and valued regular customers bringing family, friends, acquaintances. It also brought our first “real” customer complaint concerning the table setting, food, service, generally an unhappy customer who we will provide a gift certificate to try and please the next time. It is absolutely devastating when we receive a complaint that was so full of anger, disappointment; however, a time to reflect on the reality that complaints are a good thing if we learn from them, which we will do.
Daryl and Joyce, justsaygo.com; what a joy to host two travelers who make it a point to find destinations and take on the responsibility to write about their experiences, making recommendations for others. We thank you for electing to include the Queen Anne, come and listen to our stories. It was a pleasure to meet you and realize what true servant hearts that both of you have, thank you for your service to those in need, at the downtown Fort Collins coffee shop and ministry.
Abe and Mary, Western Heritage Days/Victorian Brunch; what a pleasure to host John and Pam/aka Abe and Mary (we promise air conditioning in the 3rd floor guest room, next visit, smile.) Thank you for your service in keeping an important time in our country’s history alive; your representation is so needed during these times of division and dissatifaction in America. And thank you canon city chamber of commerce/doug and the whole volunteer staff who bring an annual event to the community.
The Queen Anne tree, as many know, was hit by lighting. The 120+ year old, front tree is a part of 813 Macon, and it looked like it was going to need to come down. However, leafing out and a plea to the city forrester has allowed the old fella to live; now it is our job to keep it watered and we are so happy as it is a part of the Queen Anne experience.
Mike Boyles, restaurant radio show; Linda did a Denver radio spot last week, to air 6/26; and we both did a Colorado Springs spot two weeks ago, to air 6/19, Mike will be here tomorrow, 6/8, to discuss saturday spots for July, August. SHOW TIMES FOR Mike Boyle Restaurant Shows – Saturday, 10AM-1PM on 1460AM KZNT, and Saturday afternoon, 3-5PM on 710AM KNUS.

Please pass this along to family, friends, neighbors, like all businesses we need consistant word of mouth recommendations.
Today, Monday, as we rest and get caught up with administrative duties, ie bills and website, we reflect once again on our blessings and we ask that you lift a dear friend, Don, up in prayer; he is in ICU in canon city, with blood clots/we pray for complete healing.
