Don't overlook the hotel coupon books found at just about all rest areas. Some great places have super sunday prices. We stayed a couple of weeks ago at the Marriot Courtyard, Chicago for $54 + tax. They all have fone #'s to call ahead re parking.

prof: I forgot to mention that with E-track on the side walls you get all the ridgidity you'll need at the weak routed areas.

Great Idea! Looking forward to signing your guest book. Good luck with your choice of employment and company; we trust you'll do well.
