The Palm Beach Palace

When Leslie Harper decided to become a resident of the Palm Beach Palace Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida, she had no idea how her life would change. Leslie Harper had lost her husband, and soon she found that her big house was too large for one person. She decided to look into the Palm Beach Palace, a hotel catering mostly to seniors, which she had passed many times but had never entered. She made an appointment to see what it was like and how much she really liked the idea of being with people who, like herself, wanted their privacy. But when she wanted the pleasure of being with other people, then she was ready to mix with company. She entered the building and found it to be what she expected. It would be quite manageable. And she knew that if she wanted to be private, she could retreat to her apartment. On the other hand, if she wanted to be with people, she could go downstairs and see others like herself, where she could carry on with the other residents. So she signed a year’s lease. As soon as she packed her belongings and moved in, she found that she had done the right thing. Yes, indeed, she had done the right thing.
