Hotel Mt. Washington



Yes the hotel was as scary as we thought. While it is a throwback to a by gone era, we are happy to keep it left to an era without us. Of course we read all about room 425 and how haunted the hotel was. We both joked around about what we would say if they gave us room 425 upon check in. Luckily we didn't get room 425. Instead we got room 421. First thing dad says to mom, "do ghosts go through walls?"

We did see the people who checked into room 425. Poor folks. They had no idea what they were in for. We quickly threw our stuff in the room and it was down to the bar we went for lunch and to relax. Luckily after a few cocktails it was less scary. We had a great time out in the cold on a country sleigh ride. Afterwards dad got a massage and mom took a quick nap before dinner.

We had a great time and really enjoyed having a night away. Dinner was wonderful and breakfast was great. The service at the hotel was impeccable. Of course it was tough to be without Charlotte for a night. We kept worrying if Charlotte was going to keep Kelly and Dave awake all night long. Mom tossed and turned. As did dad. Worrying about ghosts and having the TV black out in the middle of the night were a little spooky. Of course the one chance we get to get a great nights sleep and we were not able to take advantage of it.


Despite the night away we were happy to get back and see our daughter. Kelly and Dave did an amazing job. She was in one piece when we went to pick her up, just like we left her. Thanks guys.

Sunday we had Jena and Pauls babyshower at our house. Every had a very good time, although we dont have any pictures unfortunately. We can't wait for them to join the parent club! Only a few more months!

So this picture appears to be a ghost in dress and a couple of my coworkers have agreed with this assessment. Very spooky.
