storage vestibule for a closet but
covering the walls is alien themed
wallpaper. Yes, aliens.
And keeping on the alien theme,
they even have the game Alien Autop-
sy – a spin off of Hasbro’s famous
Operation game. I didn’t pull it out
but I suppose if you ever wanted to
have carnal knowledge of an alien
this is the perfect place to find out. I
won’t judge.
It’s late June and with tempera-
tures in the mid-90s, it was as hot as
an oven with all my riding gear. So,
the next thing I do is strip down.
The property has a Japanese style
hot/cold plunge which is the perfect
place to unwind after a long ride. It
is in the pool where I finally get to
meet co-owner Monica Coleman.
She and a friend are working on in-
stalling a new pump. But no sooner
did they start before they realize they
are missing a splitter, so they go back
to Home Depot before finishing the
installation. Such is the life of mote-

Kate’s Lazy Meadow doesn’t have
any food and beverage facilities, but
there are several restaurants nearby
and Nathalie at the desk will more

have kitchenettes and there is a gro-
cery store and great little wine shop
just two miles down the road.
The entire place is very much like
a cottage community where if you
wish you can talk with others but no
one is offended if you stay to yourself.
My next-door neighbours, in Suite 2,
are Michael from Virginia and Chris
from Atlanta. The irony here is in
Love Shack the song, the destination
is 15 miles from Atlanta, yet Chris has
travelled over 1,000 miles to be here.
We have a nice conversation although
they can’t pronounce ‘Motelorcycle.’
Chris is wearing a Stacey Abrams
T-shirt so I assume they are a pair of
southern democrats out to find more
