on the road tidbits

We really had good luck with all our hotels and places we stopped along the way ... Hampton Inns are especially nice these days. I just love their motto: Making you happy makes us happy.

Here are a few random tidbits from the plethora of hotel pools - They get really fancy with water slides and splash pads from SD over to WI! Some kitsch in small town Utah at the Knit n' Craft and carriages at breakfast in the lobby.  Plenty of hot cocoa to get the day going for these lucky dogs ;)

Bottom right is from our jaunt through the University of Wisconsin-Madison's huuuuge campus!
