Anniversary Stay at the Jorgenson

We celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary at the Jorgensen House. Lorraine our chef lead us through an amazing cooking class. Scallops, halibut and crab cakes that were to die for. Then we spent the night in luxury. Renda was so welcoming and made sure we did not want for anything. The room was so elegant and the breakfast was delicious.
