{"product_id":"9781543900170","title":"Bed, Breakfast \u0026 Beyond: Twenty Years of Kooky Guests, Gentle Ghosts, And Horses in Between","description":"From the award winning author of the Lucky Foot Stable series, a memoir for all those who have ever dreamed of operating a B\u0026amp;B. This book will set you straight! BED, BREAKFAST \u0026amp; BEYOND is set at Fairwinds Farm, a 52 acre riding stable nestled in Maryland horse country. In September of 1998, Ted and JoAnn Dawson purchased the property to fulfill their lifelong dream of owning a bed \u0026amp; breakfast. Little did they know what they were getting themselves into! Restoring a filthy, dilapidated, nearly condemned Victorian house to a charming and welcoming country inn while raising two rowdy young boys was only the first of their challenges. Dealing with shady former owners, a string of ghostly events, and a wide variety of colorful guests opened their eyes to a whole new world. With the fortitude and life lessons born of years on a dairy farm, the rare good fortune of choosing the perfect partner in life, and a boatload of humor thrown in to preserve their sanity, they have managed to keep Fairwinds Farm B\u0026amp;B running for nearly twenty years, fifteen years longer than the average B\u0026amp;B in the U.S. JoAnn S. Dawson is an author, actress, college professor, and animal wrangler for film and TV when she has time away from the B\u0026amp;B. Her Lucky Foot Stable series has won numerous awards and she visits schools with her pony Butterscotch to promote reading and writing whenever she can.","brand":"BookBaby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47063996989680,"sku":"9781543900170","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781543900170_p0.jpg?v=1763783781","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781543900170","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
