want to bathe and change,

And I know that Mr. Wilson

would like to retire.

Come on.

Ash?

Mrs. Beecher.

I know... I know you didn't

expect to work till june, but...

Oh, no bother at all.

Morning.

Mornin'.

- How'd you sleep?

- You kiddin'?

- That's the rolls-royce

of motor coaches.

- Good. Great.

- How do you take your coffee?

- Black and sassy.

- Tourists up?

- Yeah, I heard stirrin's up there.

- Supposed to do

some sightseein' today.

- Yeah?

- Where they headed?

- Well, here as far as I know.

- Green Glen?

- Yeah.

Dandy little town.

- Must be nice

if you're city types.

- Mm.

- What city they from?

- I don't believe they mentioned it.

- Where'd you hook up with 'em?

- Oh, about ten miles

this side of Middleton.

Ah.

There isn't anything ten miles

this side of Middleton.

Which is where I found 'em.

Just standin' dead center to nowhere

and bags piled upside the road.

Huh.

That's a little odd.

- What a beautiful day.

- Hello.

- Very bright, isn't it?

- Here we are.

- I believe it's oak.

- Humpft.

I heard one of them say

somethin' about "the spectacle"?

What's that?

- "Spectacle"?

- Yeah.

Sure it wasn't "festival"?

'Cause there's that River Days Festival

over there in Galley county.

No, I don't think so.

No.

Rutabaga festival

over in Cloverdale.

No. This was

"the spectacle".

Well, I tell ya what I did find

just a taste odd.

- I mean, they're supposed

to be tourists, right?

- Yeah?

I haven't seen one of 'em

with a camera.

Not a one.

Oh, grand morning, isn't it?

Shaping up

pretty interesting.

Never seen so many thin people

in one room before.

- Treaty of Versailles?

- 1919.

- Tennessee valley authority?

- 1933.

- My birthday?

- 1954.

Don't you forget it!

- It's the wrong day!

- What?

It's not Sadie Hawkins Day!

Oh, my kid the genius.

- Okay. Good luck!

- Dad, come back. I got to change!

On this side.

All right.

- Bye!

- Yoo-hoo!

Well, I don't see the logic

in replacing these bells.

And they're solid bronze.

They're gonna outlive

you and me both.

The rest

of this stuff though...

- It's pretty bad, you know?

- Yeah. Yeah, see?

Rusted clear through.

It's got to be rebuilt, all of it.

Is it somethin' you could do?

Uh, I don't know.

It's a pretty big job.

Maybe you should talk to

somebody who specializes

in this kind of thing.

There's one company

up in Columbus.

I don't even want to tell ya

what they'd charge us.

- Uh-huh.

- Maybe you could...

Get started once

the inn is up and running?

Well, it could be summer,

late summer.

Bells haven't rung in 18 years.

What's a few more months?

Uh-huh.

I take this job, I don't have

to fix this thing too, do I?
