  I'm in Virginia visiting friends. Like usual I booked through Priceline since I'm cheap and will stay anywhere. I'm in this place called Aloft. It's far cooler than I am. Very modern decor, a bar as you walk in, and a large man named Lars downstairs who will bring us "anything we may need". Oh, and a floor to ceiling windoiw so I can sit on the couch and look into the shower.

  Try living here. It doesn't get better with age!

  Better to be a racer for a moment than spectator for a life time.

  I've done the automatic doors at a couple of the Aloft Hotels. Talk about super modern. Too much stainless, aluminum and fru fru colors for me. I think it would be like staying in a hospital. Give me dark stained woods and leather.

  We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public

  Build a man a fire, and he'll stay warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll stay warm for the rest of his life.

  I know how you feel. We are in Nashville right now, staying at the Hutton Hotel. It also has the glass shower window thing.

  It's far too nice for an Okie like myself.

  In reply to Chebbie_SB:

  $50a night for 4 nights. We're in Chesapeake. Sadly there are no pics of me on the treadmill but we did spend some time in the pool.

  Admit it, You've all got a case of Sheenus envy

  Beats the living daylights out of a no-tell motel !

  (When I looked at the linked site, I read it as "Cheapskate" instead of Chesapeake...)

  You didn't by any chance go to the Smithsonian to ogle the Tucker (not sure of the dates...)
