It was a magnificent view.<br /><br />In its later years it was not so much a hotel for travelers as it was a permanent home for many elderly people. The hotel's residents loved to sit around the lobby and visit with one another.<br /><br />Once, while standing inside the hotel lobby, a friend of mine commented on how sad it was to see all those people, nearing the ends of their lives, sitting around with nothing to do.<br /><br />I told him how wrong he was. All those good people had Kerrville and all of Kerrville's social events to provide them with a quality life.<br /><br />Also, I told him to look more closely at the people in the lobby. They were not sitting around staring at the walls. They were talking and communicating with one another.<br /><br />They were sharing stories, telling of the day's activities, voicing opinions on local, state and national events, remembering their families and friends. <br /><br />They were, in fact, very energetic people who had much to offer the world and they were offering it.<br /><br />That friend passed away long ago, and I, while old enough to remember Theodore Roosevelt, am in my mind, still 19 years old and piloting a Curtiss JN-4 Jenny across the skies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185899036941198756.post-18900188310878346852011-03-12T12:44:40.645-06:002011-03-12T12:44:40.645-06:00This photo reminds me of that old TV show called &...This photo reminds me of that old TV show called "Dark Shadows."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185899036941198756.post-45264346351118816342011-03-12T09:07:10.184-06:002011-03-12T09:07:10.184-06:00Joe,
