No Fixed Plans

  This week Sepia Saturday bloggers are invited to post photos inspired by the grand illustration above. Ah, I remember travel. In pre-COVID times I stayed in many. Some elegant, most not so much, but still inviting. Here's some hotels of long ago. You can see more inspired posts by clicking here .  Philadelphia's Indian Queen Hotel Indian Queen Hotel.

Chicago's Lincoln Lodge For this weekly challenge every Friday morning Xingfu Mama challenges us to post photos of something you'd sit on.  To play along: Create a post with a photo of places one sits or might sit, or art about sitting, and maybe a little background or story about the spot or a picture of the view. Add a tag “Pull up a Seat”. Add a link to your post in my comment section, either by writing a comment with your URL or by creating a pingback (when you create a link to my post within your post with the chain icon in the editor). Mine's from a comedy club in Chicago, the Lincoln Lodge.
