Sweet, sweet motel

The host was waiting for us and gave us such a warm welcome. The room is perfect—not Hilton but the sort of old fashioned motels you might dream about. Don’t expect high end, but as a longtime conference-goer, I can do without It. Real coffee cups—not styrofoam. Cookies and mints, and sweetly folded hand towels. They have a nice very large grassy area for walking your pooch—nicer and larger by far than the pathetic “pet areas” at rest stops and most hotels (I’m looking at you, La Quinta).
