Baskets from the Bunny himself!

~While we were at the Eddy Awards Saturday night, we ran into the Easter Bunny relaxing down by the pool before the big rush next week!  I asked him if he was going to hook Rooms 11 & 13 up.... And he reached into his big basket back pack and handed over a basket for each and every Ape in Rooms 11 & 13!  If you want to send in treats...please do!

Congratulations Mrs. Goodman
