* * * * * The Sunset Motel Bunny and I are staying at the Sunset Motel [1] here in overcast and slightly damp Brevard [2] (just an inch or two more of rain a year, and the area around Brevard could be classified as a rain forest). We're staying here for two reasons: 1. It has this cool 50s retro-style and it looked like it would be a fun place to try out (it's been here for as long as I remember—in fact, it's next door to the town homes I lived in when I was last living here thirty-odd years ago); 2. I procrastinated too long in registering at The Red House Inn [3] and we couldn't stay there the full nine days we planned on staying here. It's a nice place and even if it's relentlessly gay [4]: [Their decorator is walking a very fine line here.] [5] it doesn't bother either one of us. We're okay with this. It's fun! I think we're staying in The Star Room, as it's decorated with pictures of 50s movie stars like Audrey Hepburn [6], Marylyn Monroe [7] and Elvis “Hunka- hunka-hunka burnin' love!” Presley [8]. [Unfortunately, breakfast will not be at Tiffany's.] [9] Yes, I think this will be a cool place to stay for a few days.
