WE WERE SO LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR STAY AT THE HOLIDAY INN IN DECATUR...JUST A QUICK STAY. I HAD MADE RESERVATIONS SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE. WHEN WE GOT THERE THEY TRIED TO PUT US UP IN A SMOKING ROOM KING SUITE WITH THE JACUZZI. I HAVE ASTHMA AND WITH IN A MATTER OF MINUTES I HAD TO GET OUT OF THERE. THERE WAS NOT ANOTHER SUITE LEFT. THEN THEY WANTED TO PUT US UP IN A KING SUITE WITHOUT THE JACUZZI...NO WAY. THERE IS NOTHING LIKE BEING TOGETHER IN ONE AND YOUR HUBBY TALKS AND LAUGHS WITH YOU! ANYWAY WE STOPPED AT THE JAMESON INN AND THEY SAID THEY HAD A KING SUITE WITH A WHIRLPOOL TUB. (DID NOT REALLY KNOW WHAT THIS WAS BUT WE FOUND OUT!) YOU KNOW WHAT? WE STILL HAD THE BEST TIME. REALLY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE DIFFERENCE IS UNLESS IT IS JUST GETTING OUT OF THE HOUSE TO SOMEWHERE NEW AND DIFFERENT. THERE WAS A BASS FISHING TOURNAMENT GOING ON THERE IN DECATUR THIS WEEKEND SO THERE WAS ALOT OF MEN STANDING AROUND TALKING AND LAUGHING. THEY WERE LOUD BUT IT WAS VERY QUIET WHEN WE GOT BACK FROM DINNER. WE FIGURED THAT EARLY TO BED AND EARLY TO RISE...THE ONE WITH THE FIRST WORM IN THE WATER CATCHES THE FIRST FISH. WE WENT TO DINNER AT THE RED LOBSTER. FOOD WAS VERY GOOD AND YOU PROBABLY ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THE BISCUITS...MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH! THE RESTAURANT WAS RIGHT ACROSS (A SHORT WALK) FROM THE MOTEL. THE EVENING WAS WARM AND IT RAINED THAT NIGHT...YOU KNOW ONE OF THOSE GOOD RAINS THAT MAKES FOR GOOD SLEEPING. THE BED WAS FAIRLY COMFORTABLE. WE DID PLAY CARDS OF COURSE HE WON BUT IT IS WORTH IT JUST FOR HIM TO PLAY GIN RUMMY WITH ME! HE BOUGHT ME A HERSHEY'S BIG BLOCK...SO0000 GOOD! THANK YOU FATHER FOR THESE TRIPS! WE ARE RENEWED AGAIN!!
