This is Jigsha - Bob and Vina's daughter. I'm visiting my parents here at the Rustic Motel and am blogging on my dad's behalf. My dad promises to take up his blog with renewed interest if he can find some free time during the day.

He's been pretty busy making renovations to the motel. Some of the wood panelling is being removed so that the rooms have a more bright and airy feel. See some photos of a room being worked upon and the finished version too:

It snowed here on Saturday. We were expecting about 6-12", but thankfully we only have about 2". My dad had prepared the night before by laying out salt on the sidewalks. UMR had a graduation ceremony on Saturday but was unaffected by the snowfall. See a photo of the Rustic Motel with a bit of snow below.
