...so there's still hope????.....That probably has about as much chance of happening as Scott getting a tour of Steve's kitchen unless I hit the lottery in the meantime and get to build an addition.
Had to go find images of that. Wow! What I wouldn't give to have a space like that but with my craft supplies instead of gift wrap.
Super late posting all these pictures, but here they are...
Views from our condo:
The orientation video before the tour of the Stanley:
Some of the tour group outside the Stanley:
The bar that inspired the "Lloyd" bartender scene (and yes there really was a bartender named Lloyd that SK talked to back then!)
Ballroom, site of many mysterious sounds after dark...
The landing in the stairway headed up to room 217, sort of Hogwarts-esque with all the portraits, I thought...
I sneaked a picture of our girls with a real live Giant, whose height and gentle demeanor fascinated them...
The view out the window in room 217 that Stephen King would have enjoyed 40 years earlier....

Inside Room 217!
The infamous original claw-foot bathtub and shower that was there when SK was there, which found its way into the book...
Help, I'm trapped in room 217! Hamming it up for the camera...
Creepy girls in the hallway...
Water fixture that inspired a firehose nightmare for Steve, that also found its way into the novel...
Elevator that you definitely don't want to get stuck in while staying at the Overlook...
Rare shot of the back of the Stanley hotel...

In the dark spooky tunnels beneath the Stanley!
Some old books just laying around the place...
Model of the Overlook/Stanley play house used in the television version of The Shining...
What a wholesome family photo! I don't recall the clouds looking so sinister at the time.
View from the top of the steps looking down at the hedge maze they recently planted...
Incredibly handsome man spotted on the front lawn....

fushingfeef -- speechless as the spectacular pictures. Indeed, that family portrait, in front of the Stanley with those ominous clouds is one to be framed and hung in your home. Thankee, FF

Loved the girls in the hallway! The firehose!
