Hi Lilli:
I doubt you'll remember me, but I stayed at the Tom Tom in July 2004. I was riding a dirt bike and headed to San Francisco from my home in Toronto. I spent a while that morning trying to buy a new rear tire and lubricating my drive chain in your parking lot.
I just want to tell you that I've written a book about my trip west, which will be published next September by Knopf and will, apparently, be sold in every bookstore in America. It's called "Zen and Now" because I followed the ride west by author Robert Pirsig, whose book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" was published in 1974.
You and Room 4 will be famous! Do you still own the Tom Tom?
Mark, I do hope that you come back and read this. But yes i do remember you.I think you got the tire down the street with not a happy note. Won't mention any names. Yes we still own the motel. at least for now, we have it on the market for sale. I would love to do what you did, not write however as i am a terrible writer. And not on a bike either. But in our motor home. I would love to get a copy of the book. So please keep me informed as to when it comes out for sure. Did you take a photo of the room? But most importantly i hope we got a good review.? This certainly is a small world isn't it? For you to find me on a blog site.
We own a small motel that we bought in 1994 and have worked at successfully, but along with everything that has gone on with the economy we no longer run it as a motel. Plus were getting old, so just do monthly's now.
Please leave a comment as i would love to hear from you.

It really looks cold in that picture! It was in the 70's here today. Soon it will turn cold again and it will seem twice as bad.
