A Peculiar Hotel
Dear Sam,
Soon, it was getting dark. I was hungry and tired from the
activities of the day, so I decided to cope with the only hotel.
It didn’t look much but it was enough for a lost man with sore
feet like me. The landlord seemed kind and respectable as he
welcomed me in. He was kind enough to give me some supper. I
ate my meal while looking at some visitors that walked in the
dining room which was ever so ordinary.
Well, that was just a story I wanted to share with you. It was
such a strange, frightful and peculiar experience. I would never
forget that hotel or the night I had there. Who knows- I could
tell this story to my grandkids one day!
Yours truly,
Isaac
