The family loves the resort.... they have furrniture, beds to sleep in, and they have their own rooms, even though everyone ends up sleeping in the same room anyway.

“Everything had been shut tight while so much was still supposed to happen. The intent and plans hadn’t had time to vacate. And here we were now opening the lid of a sealed jar, and all the anticipation of a tomorrow planned a thousand yesterdays ago came skittering to our feet like slick-shelled beetles.”
