I wanted to leave a comment in your book, but there was no pen there, and I did not think Jeff would be appreciative being waken at 5:45am, so I am doing the next best thing. The room is absolutely beautiful, and Kristian and Jeff were always ready to guide us in the right direction and we enjoyed conversing with them. Thanks to your directions we found Anne Rice's house and shop without any trouble. It was Kristian who pointed out that you're a performer, and Jeff who showed us your book. I could not believe your Tina Turner look. I wish I could have seen you perform. I would be honored if you would send me a photo of you as Tina. It's awesome. Best of luck in the future, I'm sure by next year you will be so busy, I won't be able to get a room there! "
