Palmer House

The room is very nice; spacious with two beds, two chairs in a seating area in front of a TV. There’s a desk and dresser and two closets. The decorations all match and have sort of a peacock theme that is carried on in the carpeting in the hallways. We met a woman at the meet and greet who hadn’t made a reservation and, luckily for her, met a woman in line who didn’t have a roommate. The hotel is full, so it was serendipity.

Along the many and long hallways on the guest room floors the walls are lined with B&W photos of stars: Judy Garland, Phyllis Dillar, sony & Cher, Bob Newhart, Liberace.

I heard there were 450 in attendance at our conference and we’re not the only group here. I spotted on guy with a conference badge that stated he was a “Restaurant Executive”. The yogis seem easy to spot, even without the big bag of props or badges. There’s just something about us – a look, a sense, something. Maybe it’s the sensible shoes or the lack of three-piece suits.
