He purchased a grand sailboat and sailed for 6 years with his lovely wife Liz. What an adventure! Jim and Liz returned from their trip and purchased the original gold mine property located in Foresthill (where they live to this day).

This room comes complete with queen sized bed, antique European armoire, satellite dish television, private telephone, wireless DSL and private bath with a giant claw foot bath tub.
