Just out of curiosity, PARTSMAN, were there no rooms left at the Microtel in Robbinsville? That is going to be a MIGHTY long drive for you to get to all the MINI events....

Not to rub this in anyone's face, but I did call Fontana two days ago and got a room for Friday for my dad; he's coming to visit me from Raleigh. The girl on the phone did laugh when I said I wanted a room but, maybe because it was only for one night, she found one in the inn for him. It might be worth it to keep calling (perhaps a couple times a day? ) to see if space frees up...

An hour drive in a Mini is like a 15 min. ride in everything else!! Especially when you go topless

I didn't call the Microtel because I figured they would be all booked up. To my surprise, I just called and got their last room with a jacuzzi!! I guess there will be a lot of MINIs in the parking lot there, cool!

Congrats Partsman, but that shows that people need to re-check various places as rooms become available again for various reasons.
