It was either the Gunter or the Menger Hotel. My husband's grandfather was a roughrider. He has found wonderful information about him at the archives in DC. (I just called husband and asked him. He said it is the Menger Hotel.)
And NIOSA is still a wonderful celebration.
The Menger, that's it!
I'm glad to hear NIOSA's still fun. When my son and I lived in Dallas the first time we used to go to the State Fair every year. Several years later when we were living there again we didn't go because it wasn't nearly as safe. When the nightly news is talking up the increased police presence and all of the new safety measures in effect, then in the next breath talking about the latest brawl, stabbing or shooting there, you kind of decide it might be in your best interest to stay home.
