Here's this week's Toni's Creative Adventures. Go to the Toni's Creative Adventures blog to copy the meme questions by clicking on the graphic below my answers to the meme. I enjoy doing this meme once a week. It's always fun seeing how a story adventure can be created with just 4 fill in the blanks questions.

An Old Landmark Inn
1.   While on vacation in Europe I decided to visit an old landmark Inn at the top of the cliffs. The Inn was the place to stay for the rich and famous during the turn of the 20th century. As I rode along the winding road up to the top I noticed - someone standing by an old type vehicle ahead by the side of the road. When I stopped to offer my help there was no one and no vehicle there.

2.   Gathering my senses I continued to the Inn grounds and drove up the long unkept driveway to the now abandoned building. Stepping out of my car I walked to the door and found - it was ajar. A little nervous yet compelled to enter, I opened the door slowly and continued inside.

3.   Entering the enormous lobby I walked to the desk and opened an old falling apart guest register and as I was reading the list of guests who were part of the past of this once famous Inn I thought I heard - laughter and music in the large adjoining dining room. I went to investigate and found tables covered with old gray sheets, a musty odor and spider webs throughout the room. I turned around quickly and decided it was time for me to go.

4.   Leaving this lonely ghostly place with a relief smile on my face I thought to myself - "It must have been a great place in its day that visitors of old are still hanging out there in spirit"..
