me and husband Jeremiah Paulson got married here. wonderful place. not only were the maggots delicious, but the mold added a beautiful decoration to the venue. had two guests, the rats. loved them. My husband loved drinking the pool water too! It was a nice bonus to the amazing sound of lockers closing and kids shouting!
