Welcome To Hopes Lodge!

Here are some pictures that we took of Hopes Lodge. This was Sharon's home away from home for the 6 days that Dad was in the hospital.

This is the front door. It is just huge. We were shocked when we got there to check into the room. Look at the detail of the door handle. Click to enlarge. See if you can find the face.


This is where the stair case is.
The windows are so pretty.

We tried to figure out how old the house is but we aren't sure.


They added on to the back so they could put an elevator in. The people that work here are great. Sharon felt very comfortable, which is good since she had to stay for so long. She parked her car and didn't drive the whole time she was there. She just used the shuttle that the hospital provided for her. We will be giving you a tour of some of the inside soon.

I found the face - but at first I thought I just saw the nose - at the top of the handle!LOL! Did you know red doors symbolize good fortune or luck!? All the signs are pointing towards a happy family! My prayers continue..
