Reflections on Willard

As far as trips to Insane Asylums go, I guess this could be considered ideal. While the immense amount of people there wasn't perfect for investigation, I did get in on a legal basis. I found that most of the tourists were from out of state, and unfortunately rather out of shape. This worked in my favor though, as I was able to walk at a steady pace to the front of the group of about one hundred people, offering me the opportunity to actually talk to the tour guide. He was a volunteer who worked with the historical society, and seemed a bit overwhelmed by the number of people and the chaos they were causing, but was happy that I was asking real questions about the place. First I had to ask about previous investigators that had been there. He told me that in the past, people from the Travel channel had come to investigate, but unfortunately got into some actual records of people staying at the Drug Treatment Center nearby, a violation of HIPPA. Thus, quacks like these people are not ever allowed back, meaning that this would be my only chance to actually be inside these buildings, unless I were to sneak in ( which I wouldn't).
