Thanks, John, for mentioning WHICH Candlewood it was, seems 
there are NINE of
them in the Houston area.

So, still looking for somebody who wants a ride from the 
very general St. Louis
area to Houston.  I'll be glad to provide the car and gas, 
in return for a few
hours of driving.  Anybody interested?

OK, where are people staying?  Not that it is critial we all 
stay the same place,
but where are a majority of people staying?  Can the locals 
recommend a
decent place, maybe with a breakfast included?  (If we have 
to go out
to eat every morning, we end up eating too much...)

I gotta book the room soon!

I just made my reservations (plane, hotel, rental car) last night.
I'm staying at Candlewood Suites Houston I-10 East.  It is 9 
miles and about 15 minutes from TxRx according to Google
Maps.

It's a roughly $100 a night place.  The down-town hotels that
are closer are also much more expensive: $150 to $300.  
Reviews for the sub $100 places in Houston are pretty bad.
With more local knowledge I could have probably found a
cheaper place that is OK, but after a couple hours online I
just made a decision.

I'm arriving around 5pm Friday the 17th, and leaving 
early on Wed the 22nd.  Looking forward to seeing 
everybody.

OUCH!  I just stayed at a really nice place in Kansas City 
and it was
maybe $89 a night including ALL the taxes, fees, etc...

OK, thanks for the recommendation!  Anybody else?

I'll be bringing the same old junk, but I have added a 
centering microscope
using camview, and now can put it on either the Bridgeport 
or the minimill.
(This needs a 10.04 Linux kernel, or at least I had no luck 
making it work
on 8.04)

I also will have a Beagle Bone with the CRAMPS board 
(designed by
Charles Steinkuehler).

I also want to learn about this uspace thing, looks like 
Jeff is not going to
be there, but maybe somebody else knows about it.  I'll 
bring a blank
hard drive.

I booked a room at Baymont Inn  Suites Houston Hobby Airport through Expedia 
for $42 a night.  Unfortunately I may need to cancel and stay home as my wife 
will be 8 months pregnant.  Now that I look at the reviews more carefully 
though, I'm not seeing anything positive about that motel.

The $100 I mentioned above also included taxes, fees, etc.  So
the difference is $11 a night.

Oh, yes, I remember that one on trip advisor.  200 reviews:
11 excellent, 16 very good, 34 average and 34 poor.
And 105 terrible.

First review that popped up mentions not being able to sleep
because of the fight going on in the parking lot.  Next one 
mentioned the hookers coming and going at all hours...

In other words:  Onsite entertainment and full service!   ;-)

There was a Baymont Inn not far from my house that existed for a short 
period of time and now they advertise $120 per week or something like that.

I was approached by a hooker at a Baymont Inn in Kentucky.

For budget hotels, I've had good luck with Motel 6's across the country.

Their website is usually cheaper than their walk up or phone in rates.

They are not fancy, but they are all at about the same level of 
mediocrity and they always seem fairly safe.

I've never seen a street fight or a hooker at one.

OK, I'll avoid that one, too!  Not to mention all the 
aircraft noise from an airport
that probably has flight operations going on all night.
