Pre-Opening Jitters? Ha!

Jitters, we scoff at you! Actually, it's a buzz of excitement, not jitters that's permeating every square inch of Lowndes Grove. Tomorrow's the big day! I think we may be more excited than our lovely bride.

This morning, several members of the renovation team met with Robert Behre of the Post & Courier. (Glenn Keyes, Jim Rhodes, Paula Adams, Managing Partner Randall Goldman, Director of Events Jennifer Goldman, General Manager Ashley Gunnin and lil me.) I think it's safe to say that Mr. Behre was quite awed, not just by what he saw but by the passion and care that's apparent in each story the renovation team told. It's quite something to hear about the level of detail that goes into a project like this, from the architect, the Managing Partner, the head of construction and the interior designer.

I will regale you with some of the finer stories next week. In the meantime, here are the facts: this phase of the Lowndes Grove renovation began right after Thanksgiving. It reopens tomorrow. That's what we call a tight timeframe, folks. Congratulations to the hundreds of hands that made light work of this incredible project. Take a deep breath, the magic's about to begin.
