Ever have an unpleasant hotel surprise? I don't mean to be picky, I ignored the stack of mattresses near the main walk-way along with the broken down air conditioning equipment. When I got up to go for a run this morning, I noted several empty beer bottles in the parking lot directly in front of the hotel lobby. The spyder was near them, but unmolested, so I shrugged on. Best Western Lake Havasu City.
But this is the deal breaker... After camping all week a nice hot soaking bath was really sounding good. I began filling the tub. At about 4-5 inches full, I stepped in ready for a luxurious bath.
And then it happened... The faucet began SPEWING BLOOD!! I lept straight out of the tub, skidded across the floor and checked to see if the walls were going to start bleeding too. But they looked pretty normal. I grabbed my camera because there is no way anybody would believe this one.
GROSS!!!!
The management informed me that this was just a minor problem. Minor? What the heck is a MAJOR problem? They advised me the water softener had failed and to just run the water a few more minutes and all would be fine... I emptied the mess and indeed, after a few minutes, the water ran clear. Far too grossed out to take a tubby, I opted for a shower instead. Boy, maybe I should have camped again! angela
