Yesterday, SWMBO and I met our friend Diane for lunch at the Asylum Restaurant in the Jerome Grand Hotel in Jerome, Arizona. There is a mixed history about the old hotel. Some say it was a hospital, some say it was an insane asylum. The restaurant owner prefers the latter history and, as Halloween nears, the restaurant and grounds have been lavishly decorated by the staff. One of them told me the whole staff pitched in and did it all in four hours.
The ghostly and ghastly patrons of the restaurant seem to grow scarier as the shadows creep over the building. Our final lady of the night may have been caught in mid-scream as she got the first look at her check for the night. Or not.
Lunch, as usual, was delicious.
