For Valentine's Day (and our anniversary) Kelly and I enjoyed a great dinner and fantastic performance at the Fairfield Inn! Joe was simply outstanding in his multiple-persona role as a civil-war era magician/illusionist, the "old-timer" telling ghost stories of the battle and replicating some of the séance techniques used during the spiritualism era which flourished during and after the war.
Having previously been to the Inn for an investigation of paranormal activity, we were both acquainted with its charm and the praise for your performance. However, I must admit it exceeded all expectations -- no superlative is too good to describe it!
The combination of an excellent dinner and superb presentation in a haunted and historic facility is hard to beat! Kelly and I cannot think of anything we've enjoyed more!
