Actually I would have prefered the Hershey Lodge...love to stay there except it's so damn expensive.

I stayed there every swap for years....then one year I could not get a room and wound up at the Four Points...this was about 5 years ago..before I knew about any rennlist gatherings.

I think it's an ok place and I like the fact that it's a commercial/chain hotel....I am not much into independent places. I also like the fact that my son likes it (although he'd definately prefer the lodge).

The 10min ride to the Swap never bothered me at all...although it was much easier when I stayed at the lodge.

Not much into the drinking beer in the parking lot thing...but that's the old-guy in me. Now if you said Gin&Tonics...then maybe!

Yep, last 2 years were a dismal epic fail on my part. Couldnt make it.

Rocky- You in Cincinnasti this weekend??

Where's your deli??
It's located in hackettstown, Warren County, NJ. if you headed out 80 first, the deli is right on rt.57(which becomes 22, in turn to 78).

Sorry...but not yet. I need to give Patrick and Rock a buz and I have been just swamped between family stuff during the holidays and now work (I guess a good thing).

Stay tuned...will try and get back to this topic with some info next week.

Have to get back to you but if you're starting to worry...book a room at the Sheraton Four Points in Harrisburg...that's where I am staying at this point.

Joe,
I've been busy too. Give me a call any evening when you get a chance.

Ethan, The Four Points is a nice hotel, last year with the rennlist discount was under $100 I think.
