At Stone's Throw you can bet you will find freshly baked goods and brewed coffee. Like today's savory breads- still in the oven and already the smell fill the air.

Also new at the guest house is our linen. Beautiful. Comfortable. And soooo soft!

On weekends i spend my time creating a beautiful garden... Rome was not built in one day but the vision looks great!

Hope to see you folks soon.

Keep warm!

The meanings and origins of sayings and phrases

Origin of the phrase: "Stone's Throw'
"A stone's throw is, of course, literally the distance that a stone can be thrown, but has come to mean any short but undefined distance. Early English versions of the Bible refer to 'a stone's cast' with the same meaning, as in Luke 22:41, Wycliffe's Bible, 1526, for example:

"in the end he g*t himself from them, about a stone's cast"

'Stone's throw' was used in a non-biblical setting by the end of the 16th century. Arthur Hall's translation The Ten books of Homers Iliades, 1581, contains this line:

"For who can see a stones throw of ought thing in land or plaine?"- http://www.phrases.org.uk

the first big rain storm hits the Cape tonight- just what we needed... Stone's Throw will open its blinds to view the beautiful rain over the sea, with a nice bowl of pasta- this Guest House truly has a spectacular view, and at the moment I'm watching the clouds drawing over Table Mountain like a big table cloth- simply amazing
