Chapter 12: Last night stay.

The last full day was a bit of a scramble as I wanted to do a bunch on things on my way out. Eventually I ended up at the hotel which is not on mapquest...additional stress after I lost my phone and then found it...I know this area well even though it's a bit rural, hilly and wooded. I think i've been up almost every road...but I could not picture this hotel...after my experiences on this trip I was ready for mediocre at best. When I finally arrived I was happy. I had driven by this place a million times. It's huge, up on top of a hill, and unassuming. What threw me is the property photo you see here, it doesn't show the huge hill it's on from the road. I didn't even see the pool, it's way at the top of the hill behind the hotel...but, you had to wear a bathing cap! You can borrow one from them...

I loved this place...it was stuck in the 1960's/70's. It had the most gaudy art, all by the same painter, a local that the place is filled with ( see attached.) It is a family affair...all men..uncles and brothers, all from the family. It's a very interesting place and I would love to go back and photograph there, the view ius incredible.

This area is a favorite with motorcycles and biking people and they cater to them. I had dinner and it was excellent...pics to follow. The only thing I would say I did not like was the thin walls...they need to soundproof...I would go again but would stay in another room...They were also very gracious, excellent service.
