It was a Tuesday morning just like any other in Homewood, IL. Birds were chirping. Cereal was being poured. Toxic pool chemicals were left exposed.
After showing up for a scheduled inspection at the Homewood Hotel, authorities discovered improperly-stored pool chemicals on the property, and quickly had to evacuate all 36 occupied guest rooms. At 7:30 in the morning. After shuffling sleepily onto the front lawn, guests were understandably irked. And even more so when the Fire Chief announced that it would take another four to eight hours for the hotel to be deemed safe again.
