Yes, it is. The hotel is between Little Five Points/Inman Park and Virginia Highlands, and both are good walking areas with sidewalks.
Groovy!

'Lessons'
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.

Thanks, Ginger, for expanding on that. Found my old list of places.
edited to be in my order of liking
Stefans Vintage (1160 Euclid Avenue) - high end vintage - got a rhinestone necklace for bellydancing here.
Rag-o-rama (1111 Euclid Avenue NE) - LOVE this place. Like Buffalo Exchange, if you've seen one of those. When I was there in September, I got a leather vest and red fake snakeskin pants for my Halloween costume and 3 skirts for work. Nice, spacious layout and lots of quality stuff.
Junkman's Daughter (464 Moreland Ave NE ) - funky clothes (i.e. Lip Service) and shoes, gag gifts, etc. Kind of overpriced, IMHO.
Psycho Sisters Consignment (428 Moreland Ave.) - packed to the GILLS. Hard to find anything. But a whole lot of fun/wacky going on. This is the place to get a feather boa or platform go go boots for prom.
coffee and a croissant:
I hereby volunteer to be the recycling coordinator for the weekend. Brenda and Ginger, do we know if the hotel provides recycling facilities? I'll be happy to talk to them about it, or help find nearby facilities.
If anyone wants to help me on this, please let me know. I'm thinking a lot of bottles/cans will be generated this weekend, and office paper, too.
Inman Park has old sidewalks that are kind of difficult in the dark or when drinking,
I love the "or when drinking"
smonster, I think I love you.
I was going to bring bags and put up big signs, because I'm kind of obsessive on the subject. We can check to see if the hotel does recycling, but my plan was to have people put recyclables in plastic bags. I can throw them in the truck and take them to a recycling center.
I'd also like some people to volunteer times to cruise through the hospitality suite and clean up the assorted debris.

Pfft! Who doesn't love smonster?

RW&A, Ginger. Why don't you make that the first thing you put on the board?
Also, adding smonster and brenda to the nail list we're now up to 9. Will that nail place take us, Ginger?
I keep going over the list of clothes and other things to bring. What should I wear to the Rocky Horror show?
Also I just thought of a cd to bring but I have no idea where it is, but I thought y'all might like to hear the local Pirate band. I have a feeling I'm going to extremely over pack.
Everybody overpacks for this. Or I do, anyway.
Which reminds me, I need to pack. And clean. And clean. And clean.
(email received a couple of months ago: "hey, would it be okay if I stayed with you in Chicago with a couple of friends the weekend of the 4th?" "Absolutely! I'll leave plenty of dog chow and see you on Sunday.")

Ginger is me. Hey, amyth and I carried recyclables from the DC f2f back down to NC. It's what we do.
Good idea on the tidy sign-up, Ginger and Sparky. Let's hope if we keep up with it throughout the weekend, it won't be such a big deal on Sunday morning.
What should I wear to the Rocky Horror show?
If you don't want to dress as a specific character, anything black/red/fishnets/corsetry should be okay. (says the girl who's been once)
Umm. You (general you) might want to wear cute underwear. There was an underwear run at the showing I attended.
