Charles,
How about camping?? I'll bet you could find a good campground that might rent camping trailers for that weekend. I am going to look for just that type of housing. I will probably tent camp but I'd love to stay in the same campground with you and Janet if you are up to it. I could also bring my lab along as most campgrounds allow pets.
Just a wayout thought that may prove a nice alternative to a downtown hotel.
BTW, in case you haven't camped in awhile, most campgrounds have nice shower facilities, laundermats, and some have eating facilities, game rooms, pools,etc.
