What a resource for aspiring innkeepers.

Full disclosure, I was a recent guest on this podcast. It's great to see such a valuable resource for aspiring innkeepers and property GMs. The host is a longtime former innkeeper, and she was the Tourism Commissioner for the State of Vermont. She knows her stuff.
