HOT DAMN I just got a room booked at the Nugget!  We still may camp if we have a motor home by then but I have the room now if I need it.

The "normal" destination is Nebraska followed by a car show. This year it is Bville...no car show.

Yes I did.......at the Super 8. All they had left was a couple of smoking rooms when we called at 8AM Jan 1. I tried at 4:00 am and the night clerk could not take reservations, call back at 8. Had to let the phone ring forever, then the gal says " why didn't you get room when you were here in Aug of 2007", told her we tried and you wouldn't take res then. No she said we try to take care of our regular customers. WTF!!!

Just like BTT50, the event is getting to big!!!
