CHATEAU RESET! Less than 48 Hours to Prepare for a Patron Weekend!

Journey to the Château, Ep. 236 - In this Wednesday episode, Patrick and Stuart temporarily stop their renovation and restoration to prepare for a weekend with Patron guests at the chateau. They have less than 48 hours to put away all of the tools, paint and scaffolding and then clean up and redecorate the chateau, while also planning and preparing 2 formal dinners for their guests. Patrick also works with patron volunteer Martin to do the first landscaping around the fountain with planting roses previously provided by Ron (Château de Colombe's Patron of the Plants). Patrick and Stuart also take their guests for a day out at a local brocante in the French town of Pruniers.

Patrick, beautiful floral arrangement! The dining room is fabulous and the planter stand extra touch! Happy it’s all going well.

[inaskatze]

It's wonderful what you've created. You are always so hard-working and everything is designed with so much attention to detail. It's great that you had such a great weekend with your helpers. The one person I missed, however, was Figaro 😻. A nice time for you.

[ritafoster]

Keep hanging in there, my friends- soon you’ll be able to relax again, I hope! Great episode today! ❤️

[crae]

Can really begin to see just how stunning the dining room is going to be when finished. Glad you and your Patrons had an enjoyable weekend. Love how they pitch in and help. When the big upcoming event is over, I do hope you two take at least a couple days off to relax and rest up. You certainly deserve to. Best to you both and gentle scritches to the pups and Figgy.

Down to the wire, Patrick and Stuart, but you did it. Everything looked well thought out. You must have been channeling your inner Vincent Van Gogh with those sunflowers 🌻 epic! Loved to see your dogs. Have they been introduced to Figaro yet?
Wishing you success. 🫂
