the auto-lines that intimidating, but then, I'm not arriving just when the
place opens, either (nor do I depart after the show ends). I've stayed at
hotels three times (two in Osh, one in Fond du Lac), private homes twice.
Two of the hotels had been close to a shuttle bus stop, otherwise, I just
drove. Riding the shuttle off the show grounds was a lot easier (and a
shorter walk!) than driving and parking, but the lines for the busses were
occasionally a bit long, too.

Haven't gone for a few years, but one possibility not mentioned so far
are the university dorms. We did that once and it worked out fine. We ate
there, used their bowling alley and other goodies, and a handy shuttle bus
took us to and from the grounds. Don't expect hotel-quality rooms, beds and
baths, but it sure beats a tent. Made me feel good too, we needed the rooms
and the university can always use the money.

Vaughn,
Can you give us any contact info? I like the sound of the college dorms.

Jay,

You *really* need to put warnings in the subject line of a post like that.
It's only by luck I'd already put the coffee down.
