    RV Parks in the area:

    Marina Bay RV Park in Kemah This one is very nice and near to Galveston Bay and the Kemah Boardwalk, which will probably be the location of the Thursday night event, since they have "Rock the Dock Concert Series" on Thursday nights.

    Space Center RV Park This one is probably the closest to the conference location.

    Ended up booking today at Microtel inn, 1620 Nasa Road 1 for $44 a night through hotels.com. I debated Motel 6 $39 and this place and the deciding factor was that motel 6 charges $2.99 a day for internet. Microtel has WIFI and looks like a decent breakfast. I am driving up Tue night and checking in on wed so If I can help anyone with rides let me know. I will be attending the CW Start U on Wed.

    P.S. If anyone wants to start up an impromptu poker game I keep chips and cards in my trunk!

    Everyone is encouraged to stay in the Hilton Garden Inn (the host hotel for our event), but there are about 8 additional hotels within a two mile area and dozens more within 10 miles. They range in prices and amenities.

    Do you have a listing of the other nearby hotels? Kinda want to shop around for some cheaper pricing. Also wondering if anyone is taking their spouse. Maybe we could team them up while carvoholics are in workshops? Just sayin....

    Baybrook mall is across the freeway on bay area blvd. Lots of shopping plus space center, kemah, Galveston etc.

    La Quinta and Hampton inn are across the street holiday inn and more right there. Try a mapquest search of Hilton G. Inn then search hotel zoomed into HGI location. Each should have weblink and phone #.

    Well Lynn you aren't the only one hot. Today we broke our record high, it was 93 degrees with high humidity in Evansdale,Iowa. Had to mow the yard for Saturday's shop tour. Have the shop all cleaned & hoping it doesn't rain so I can run the CarveWright for the tour. Oh You are invited! It starts at 9:00 A.M. Saturday morning.

    Wouldn't you just know it, Floyd beat me to the bar at the Hilton Garden Inn. And there I thought I was making such good time. See you all Wednesday morning for eggs and sawdust. Crashing now.
