OCTOBER! Really?

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2012

I can’t believe it is already October!  I was running this morning with neighbors (yes, me), and realized how wonderfully cool it was.  When the sun eventually came up, I saw how fantastic the Governor’s Mansion District of the Quapaw Quarter looks bathed in sunlight.  The houses are truly splendid.  And it did make the pain of running at 6:30 am a little more bearable.  But, October?

Arkansas really knows how to do October.  There are just so many outdoor activities, and the festivals!  As the temperatures drop down to the fabulous range, Arkansans come out of the air conditioning.

On Saturday, the 6th, there are the Junction Bridge Regatta Sailboat Exhibition Races.  This pedestrian bridge was just dedicated this time last year and we are already making great use of it with wonderful activities like this.  The Grande Maumelle Sailing Club is putting on the Rowing Exhibition Races on the river.  Music, snacks, and beverages provided, just bring your own chair and enjoy the afternoon.

On the 9th, Need to Breathe will be in concert at Robinson Music Hall; and Tales of the Crypt is going on at Mount Holly Cemetery.  Bassnectar is on the 10th at the River Market Amphitheatre.  Then there is Brad Paisley on the 11th at Verizon.

Between the Haunted Cathedral and World Cheese Dip Championship, there are lot’s of family activities just minutes from Robinwood.  Come visit us and join the fun.

Spring has Sprung in Little Rock, AR

Friday, March 2nd, 2012

I can’t believe that spring is already here.  The is March 2, 2012 and the temperature reached 83 degrees today.  Not our normal temperatures, but absolutely fabulous!   Time has just flown since the leaves turned, Santa dropped by, and the New Year’s Celebrations have been cleaned up.

The Little Rock Marathon is tomorrow!    12,000 participants and 30,000 spectators have made this event one of my favorite spring things.  The ten mile water stop is just two blocks from Robinwood B&B and we will be there cheering the runners on with music and enthusiasm.

You just don’t expect Little Rock to put on a St Patrick’s Day Parade, but here it is on March 17th.  It starts at Dugan’s and runs to Cregeen’s, crossing a river pub to pub.  Be sure to wear your green and join the Irish.

Cruisin’  the Rock is March 23 in the River Market District, just minutes from the B&B.  Classic cars, street rods, trucks, and motorcycles take over the downtown area with fun for all.  I630 is always a parade of interesting vehicles on this weekend.

Spring has sprung in Little Rock and we are ready to make the most of it!  Come join us at Robinwood B&B and let us help you make magical memories.

We are sixteen days from the Little Rock Marathon.  On March 6, 2011, the race will be on!

Traveling Through Little Rock, AR on Christmas Night?

If you have to travel on Christmas night, it can feel very lonely.  This year, we are inviting you to join us and our neighbors for appetizers and wine at Robinwood B&B.  Or if you are already in town, but need to get a break from family activities, leave the kids with the grandparents, grab a room with a Jacuzzi, and relax in luxury.

I hope you’ll call us and make a reservation soon.

Weddings at Robinwood

Monday, October 25th, 2010

Mother and I were talking about what we wanted to do at Robinwood this winter, and we decided we would like to make Robinwood B&B romance central for November, December, and January.

We are putting together new packages for elopements and weddings.

While we recognize that cost should never prevent a bride from having everything she wants on her special day, we know that in this economy, it sometimes does.  We would love to make your wedding day beautiful and affordable.

We will work with you to make your dreams come true by making our packages fit your individual desires.  If you need a photographer, we will supply one.  If you prefer to cater your own reception, we will work with you on your menu.

We can provide all linens, dishes, glassware, and serving pieces that you require.  Flowers, candles, and ribbons can be used as much or as little as you prefer.

Let us make your day special and worry free, at Robinwood.

"OH, THE WEATHER OUT THERE IS FRIGHTFUL!"

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

Temperatures in Little Rock have plummeted to ridiculous lows for a southern state!  But, in a couple of days, we’ll be back to normal.  Cabin fever has definately set in and the perfect cure is a wonderful weekend at Robinwood!  The fireplace in the Albert Pike Room makes for a warm and toasty experience.  The Jacuzzis warm the bones and this is a perfect neighborhood to explore.

Don’t let January get away from you, enjoy this great new year with us!
