I would love to meet you. I forgot that I also lived in Jacksonville and Clearwater. I know, I know- crazy- right? Daddy was a hotel/ motel mgr.Sheraton, HoJo's, Day's Inn.
I have great story of The Ormond Hotel. I used to live there when I was 15. Daddy got a job there as the Mgr and we lived in a big room with a reefer. Room and board was included. Mom and Dad were 43 and my sis was 3 yrs old. She was a pain in the butt for the residents there cause she would RUN in front of them and almost trip people. It was considered an 'Old Folks Home' and we had to eat in the main dining room 3 x a day. mostly- creamed eggs on toast. YUCK.
I'll PM you Kitty.
