Happenings at the Inn in June

425 years ago on June 6th, 1586 twenty-three ships approached the harbor of the Spanish colonial city of St. Augustine with 2000 Englishmen under the command of Sir Francis Drake. Reliving this historic event; this Saturday, June the 4th in the late afternoon, Drake and his followers will descend on the city’s historic district. In the early evening you will witness the English attack on the town, the Spanish residents’ defense, with pike and musket skirmishes, and the simulated destruction of the town by the invaders.

Cleaning tip:  It is grilling season and barbecue stains are waiting to happen.  Try flushing the stain from the backside of the garment immediately and pre-treat with a stain remover.  For white fabrics try blotting the stain with a mild mixture of bleach 1 to 20 ratio or for colors try Hydrogen peroxide or vinegar.
