I love that you gave him "life" in this piece. Beautiful, evocative. You should write for some publications! I usually write poetry, but for my longer pieces an editor requested breaking it up for readability on digital platforms. Here's what it looks like after I made the changes. And this publication "The Memoirist" lend itself to the longer read. Keep writing! https://medium.com/the-memoirist/vacation-at-the-mirador-motel-502e12c6f010
