Mississippi - Part Fifteen - Vicksburg - Baer House Second Floor



The upstairs hallway of Baer House Inn in Vicksburg, Mississippi was as beautiful as the main floor.
(You hoped thought I had forgotten about Mississippi, didn't you)


We were told that the lady who built the house had this made for her clothes.
She would open up the cabinet doors and also the front and back doors on this floor to air out her clothes.
You can see the door to the second floor front porch.
(I wonder if that vent in the center of the cabinet near the floor is the ventilation return for the modern central units)






This door goes to the second floor veranda.




Beautiful from any viewpoint.

Pretty Top Shot


Beautiful flower arrangement at Baer House Inn in Vicksburg, Mississippi
This is not the top shot I made this week, but it is the top shot I am sharing for this week. :)

Mississippi - Part Thirteen - Baer House - Main and Verandas



I warned you up front, so if you opened this post to more Mississippi, it's your own doing.


The main public room in Baer House Inn, Vicksburg, Mississippi


We were told that all the white cabinetry was installed by attorneys that used the house for offices
for many years before it became a bed and breakfast.




I wonder if there is beautiful wood underneath this white paint.





The owner is a cyclist.

Mississippi - Part Twelve (yes, twelve) - Vicksburg - Baer House - Scarlett




Probably more of a ladies' post, but here's a glimpse of our room at Baer House in
Vicksburg, Mississippi.



"Scarlett" was the name of our room at Baer House.
It was very comfortable with all the necessities.








A pretty pink bathroom.
My husband said it was fine.
I'm sure he was thinking "don't get any ideas for home".
No worries, I'm not a pink person.




Just in case you're in the market for a bed and breakfast in Vicksburg, Mississippi,

I recommend Baer House.

("twelve" is a strange word, isn't it?)

Mississippi - Part Seven - Vicksburg - Baer House Inn


Baer House Inn in Vicksburg is a beautiful bed and breakfast.
We were very pleased with our stay there.










And that's just the exterior and main hallway.

Mississippi - Part Five - Vicksburg



Tired of Mississippi yet?


How many shots of the Mississippi River can you tolerate?
Linking this one with

Weekend Reflection

Vicksburg is more of a traditional vacation spot.

Historic downtown with cobblestone streets,
old mansions, B & Bs, and of course Civil War sites galore.








We were told that this "riverboat" casino was out of business.
There were a few more casinos along the riverbanks.


There were creature accommodations also.
I imagine these are for purple martins which supposedly eat mosquitoes.




The time we went was dictated by when my husband could get away from work.
It coincided with the hottest week of May on record (my opinion, I did not check the record books).
So, with 90+ temps and even higher humidity, I was pretty much miserable the whole time.
After we got home a couple of cold fronts have come through.
Wouldn't you know it.



We stayed at the Baer House Inn.
A beautiful old home and well managed bed and breakfast.
I'll show more later on.
(and thank goodness the air conditioning worked well)
