Well, it looks cool. But the room is SO small. My suitcase was too big to go around the bed. Thankfully, I'm only here one night, so I'll be fine.

Dad and I used to watch the movie Patton together every year! Thank goodness he made it home - he and his shrapnel in his head. I wonder if Patton's family really wanted him buried there? [Sharon]
