I would really be able to see the difference in experiences that my mother and father had
more explicitly, in a way that I could pick it up without any question. I particularly
remember one instance when we were going up into the Gold Country and it was late at night
and we needed a hotel to stay in. And we came across one that had a vacancy sign and my
dad went in to see if there was a room and as soon as he went in they said, " no, there's
no opening, there are no rooms." But, and so my dad came out and said, "well that's
very funny, because it says vacancy before." So then, my mother turned around and walked
into the hotel and asked if there were vacancies. And, lo and behold there was a vacancy.
