There are other accommodations nearby (4-5miles), but you don't want tot stay there. You want to be where the party is. Continue to watch RL and people will cancel.

Alternatively, you can make a reservation for a non-shark-rate room.

The woman on the phone told me I got the last room they had for the weekend before I even mentioned SITM. She made it sound like the last room, period.

She did give me the SITM room rate when I booked it.

Surely there will be cancellations between now and June.

I'm glad I booked when I did.

I had just talked my wife into going (letting me go).

The reason I gave her for booking now was "the hotel could be booked up if we wait too long".

Plan for 2 at the coffee shop.

We may have a few more for company this trip, and I really want to be alive for the Skyway run.

I talked to Jeanie on Thursday, she mentioned something about a wet t-shirt contest??

So far the only contestants signed up are Andrew, Homo 1, and Hillbilly Greg.

Something tells me we are not quite grasping the point to such a contest.
