And speaking of guns and gardens ….

Oh.  My.  Goodness.

A family staying at a Sugar Land motel got something unexpected at check in; grandma found a gun under a pillow.

And how did it get there?

Drury Inn Regional Manager Brian Collins said they learned the gun belongs to a previous guest who is registered as a handgun owner and when the staff went to prepare the room, it was overlooked.

Granny ain’t too happy about this turn of events.

Perronne can’t help but get emotional remembering how her granddaughters were playing beside her just minutes before [she found the gun]. “It didn’t, it didn’t happen, it didn’t happen. Thank God it didn’t happen to us,” Perronne said.

And the cops were called and through amazing police skills determined —

Sugar Land police were called to the hotel and after looking over the gun, they determined it was a loaded 40-caliber handgun.

“Okay,” Juanita reacts with some amount of wonder, “this is Texas.  The gun is to be expected.  However, the fact that they don’t fluff the pillows between guests falls short of the normal standards of gracious hospitality you find in Sugar Land.”

The owner of the hotel says  —

“Housekeeping should be more consistent in checking the rooms and the beds, and I hope nothing like this has to happen again,” Frugia said.

“Honey, if I were you, I wouldn’t sit on the bedspread at the Drury Hotel in Sugar Land,” Juanita says.
