We have another nursing home association meeting coming up in April, unfortunately, it’s being held in Peoria. Now I have no bone to pick with Peoria the city, it’s their hotels. The meeting is scheduled at the Paradise Hotel and casino, which is right along the river, near lots of great restaurants and what not. The problem is they do not allow pets. Pets of any kind. Not even tiny little four pound poms, who I would wager are far better trained and behaved than most children. In fact, none of the hotels on the casino side of the river allow pets. We and our pommies have to stay several miles away every time the meeting is held in Peoria.

You’d think the hotels would do a little market research! Maybe then they would realize that a lot of people travel with their pets!
