At 3pm yesterday Ruth kidnapped me (or as she said, husband-napped me). She felt I needed time away.
She surprised me by bringing me to the Elvis Presley Suite (room 409) at the Best Western Rail Haven Motor Lodge on Glenstone Ave. I have wanted to do this for years. I love it here. I am surrounded by Elvis memorabilia, including a neon Elvis on one of the walls. This is living life in tall cotton.
Elvis and his mom stayed here in May 1956, when he did a concert at the Shrine Mosque. Ruth brought me here in May 2012 to celebrate that big event. To say this is a wonderful gift would be a huge understatement. I'll be talking about this for years to come. Thanks, sweet babe.
