I just wanted to tell you we had a wonderful time. Kim was great. The staff at Red Newt and Barnstormer were fantastic. We are very pleased from asking questions to you via email to Kim dropping us off at our car so we could leave all our purchases in the car and not have to bring them up to our room. We will definitely keep Crush in mind if we plan another trip.
