Publisher Description: This book recounts the author's adventures during the time he owned a residential hotel. Through it all, the residents were a source of entertainment, fun, and laughter. The author hosted a variety of people - including a trained concert pianist, a Harvard graduate, a beauty contest winner, a priest, and numerous veterans. The tales range from sad to uplifting to downright unpredictable, but always with a lesson to be learned at the end. Each story is different from the others and holds its own indelible charm.
When Lick wasn't busy with the above or getting his daily orders from the kids or their mother, he liked to nap in his chair in front of the fireplace. Of course there were downs during all this--Lick and his family weren't immune to sadness and tears--but they did get this far... by hook or by crook |
