Deja Vu, North Platte, Nebraska

Quick update… we just checked into our hotel for the night. We picked a random exit in North Platte (saw a bunch of hotel signs from the interstate). I hopped out of the van and ran in to check availability of rooms, and had a deja vu moment. The guy working the night shift came out and I recognized him. He looked me up in the computer and sure enough, we stayed here recently. He asked if we wanted the “newly renovated” rooms. I said, “Shore.” As we got to the rooms, we realized that we’re staying at the “Asbestos Removal Zone” hotel again (see Road Journal post below from August 28th). Funny, and completely random. No barricaded hallways this time, though my room does smell like it was just painted an hour ago. We’ll have sweet dreams tonight. Later, skaters.
