This is what I've been working on and I'll have a lot of editing and condensing to do but it's been fun. I switched my item to one of the post cards I found at the antique place. It's from Sunset Motel in Lakland Florida which is a suburb of Tampa I believe. This is what I have so far:
The identity of a man was uncovered in 1987 when a chain reaction was set forth by the simplest of acts. In 1969, a woman, Mary Thompson, and her family had just finished a 7 hour drie from Roswell, Georgia to the bright and sunny state of Florida. Mary, Vincent, her husband, Hank, her 14 yr old son, and Julie her 8 yr old daughter had decided around dinner that instead of driving for several more hours, the family would rest at the cozy Sunset Motel. Julie had found a flyer for the motel at the last pitstop and had insisted that they go 20 mles out of their way to stay.
Once at the Sunset Motel, Vincent checked the family in and Mary started helping the children organize their things in the car so they could help their father carry luggage into the motel room. Julie started immediately scrummaging through ther junk food wrappers and found her swimmiing goggles she had been wearing earlier during the ride. She had been pretending to be a mermaid and fighting off the treacherous Sea Weed Monster, also known as Hank.
Hank didn't realize he was a part of this 8 year old adventure until a piece of pre-chewed bubblegum got pushed up his right nostrel. Julie did this to defeat the Sea Weed monter by stopping his ability of shoot boogers full of sea weed out of his nose.
Julie then started didgging at her suitcase looking for her swimsuit. Mary started to scold her when she relized the pool at the Sunset Motel did look nice and Hank and Julie could go swim while Vincent and she unloaded the car and maybe got a few kisses and snuggles in without puking sounds and gagging sounds along with the words "ewe" screaming at them from behind. It had definately started being a difficult summer with both children in the annoying stages of their childhood with no place for Mary to really hide."
That's what I have so far. It's fun but getting really long I think. We'll see what I end up with for tomorrow. I'm excited anyway.
