Bump to talk to my husband about it!!
Oh and I forgot to say- which area Freeper couch am I crashing on? LOL!! Finding a room could be an experience...
Woo Hoo!
Cool!
Contact me, We'll see what we have to do. Might have to have sleepin' bags.......
Do a priceline or hotwire search of Washington DC and see what you come up with. I think you may be able to take the metro to where the ball is going to be. Alexandria is a personal favorite :). You can also call Gallaudet University in DC - this is a university where deaf students are educated - they run a hotel on their school grounds that I heard is similar to a Days Inn, for about 70 dollars a night. The students run it. I know that sounds odd but its true.
Oh My! I better call and get some.
Fishtalk. I am hoping to go to this ball with Roselani and Mrs. Liberty. They happen to be my sisters. Almost two years ago, I started corresponding with Rabid Republican who is now Rabid Dog. She jump started some rallies and things in Ventura County CA and I helped where I could. Met a few more Freepers - Mayflower Madam for one. When President Reagan died, I met a slew of Freepers. And then later this summer, in July, Rabid organized a Reagan Library tour and then a bunch of us met at her house for some good eats. What an awesome time! Doodlelady doodled, People's Republic and Hangfire jammed, DFU was there with his cool PT cruiser and Jim Robinson, his wife and son all were there. The best way to describe this is YOU FEEL IMMEDIATELY at home. Maybe you are more to the center and some are more to the right, but your basic values and beliefs are similar. What I am saying is, that you will know everybody, and they will know you. You will be comfortable. Its a good feeling to be with other Freepers.
I can be a 1. Maybe a west coast freeper lady can be my 2? I hate to attend a Formal event alone. BTW I am a 37 year old single dad. I guess I'll put a pic on my about page.
I don't know about shairng rooms but maybe would could get a deal if we booked a block of rooms. We would all get to meet each other that way too.
I guess you can freepmail me if interested.
Thanks! This is going to be a blast - I look forward to meeting all the great Freepers who will be there.
Bump for a date
Bump for a JimRob thread
Bump since the other thread was yanked
Yes, the link worked . Good letter. You go Girl!!!
I send in quite a few letters to both papers "nearby" .. the Cleveland PD & Akron BJ. now & then they get published. The published letters are liberal 90% of time. Surprise! HAHA
YEs, at The Silverware ball, we stayed north of DC and took a short cab ride. WE had three ladies all sharing one room, 2 gents in another and I had my own room by choice and budget--it's a SNORING thing.
Freepers were pretty well scattered about in hotels, some down in Crystal City. Remember the MEtro is very easy to use and on Inauguration Night will likely be running late.
Taxi's also, we got around very easily. Freepers are pretty good at sharing.

Heya NYTexan.

Yall have a great time and take pictures!
