Jack & Vicki Visit
Room was very nice. The floor was not even and slanted which required balance at all times...emulated the Fun House at Okoboji but the challenge was fun. Enjoyed chatting with Devin and the owner, Mark, during piano-playing maniac (moi?) Sat. night. Was hoping a comp drink would have ensued, but no.
