Hey, we should, like, have lunch or something while you're in Indy! If you have the time, that is, I don't know how busy the event you are going to is.

It shouldn't be too busy! I'd love to see you!

:) that assumes I'm in Chicago at all :)

Though I will be there (albeit super briefly) the weekend of May 19th.

Sounds like some good plans!

Yikes. Given those hotel rates, camping at the dance site is looking awfully attractive, even given our current total lack of camping gear...

Yeah, $95 a night? Have you contacted any of the other places? We stayed at the Microtel suites last year, and it was fine, as I recall. Maybe they have better rates?

Also, there is housing to apply for, or, obviously, camping.

I poked at all the things that were pokeable-at from online, and didn't get a better price; most places were entirely booked up. I haven't called anyone without a website yet (this would include Microtel).

Well, REI isn't a bad place to shop for camping stuff, and you get 10% back on stuff you buy not-on-sale. Additionally, if you join (or were already a member ) you can get a 20% off any one item coupon. Tents start around $100, and there's no need for sleeping bags this time of year, I expect. Mary and I have a quarter dome or a half dome , I think.

There are showers and bathrooms and food and stuff just inside, so aside from a place to sleep, you need not provide a lot of stuff.
