[PRCo] Re: JOHN BROMLEY'S PITTSBURGH SLIDE PRESENTATION

[Fred W. Schneider III]

My idea of a bargain is Motel 6, Murtland St., Washington, at $199 a
week.  My wife's idea of a nice place is the new Hilton Garden off I-79
at Southpointe exit ... their get acquainted special last Thanksgiving
was about $67 a night (but the rack rate was more than double that). 
The Holiday Inn at Meadowlands is closer to $80 a pop.  While most
Hampton Inns are good, the manager of the one at Washington has some
less desirable qualities.  

Barb Myers-Chiccone of the museum is in the travel agency business and
is upset if people don't book through her (even if she gets no
commission).  E-mail <barb_trl at icubed.com>

They've quoted a rate for 2, king-size, of $75 + 9% tax, $89 if you want a hot tub (ah,  decadence).  Toll-free 1-800-228-5150, FAX 1-724-746-9706, internet www.choicehotels.com .

Catch up on your sleep beforehand, as this show's only going to happen once.
