If we're considering NY, we might want to look into hotels in Hoboken. It's just a few minutes from Hoboken into the city on the PATH, and I would bet that the hotels would be a lot cheaper.
I was under the impression that I was your big comfy blanky.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

And Hoboken has the highest density of bars of any American city apparently.

There aren't very many hotels in Hoboken, and they aren't cheap. The same goes for Jersey City.

Because books.
I know there are a few motels right at the mouth of the Holland Tunnel, but I'm guessing we might not want to stay in them.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
erin, are you crazy?! Buffistas, tons of bars, and a *7 foot singing chicken*?! It's like God just stepped down from Heaven announcing his existence, telling the world he's a Buffy fan and We are his Chosen People, and handed us a travel brochure engraved on a stone tablet! We HAVE to go to Hoboken!

No chance of Boreanaz showing if we do that.

Meara, you said something a while ago about maybe being in town this weekend?

Our wings are not tired.
Speaking of being in town, and that town being D.C., this time I am coming for certain. Conference is paid for, ticket is bought. In fact, I am going from SFO-BOS-IAD so that I can visit Steve over Pres Day Weekend (not scheduling any Buffista get-togethers for Boston just yet - and it's not bad this time - it's that we might go out of town for that weekend once I get there).
So, I have the nights of Tues., Wed., Thurs and Friday (Feb 16-19) to spend quality time with Buffistas in DC. I'll actually be staying at the Westin in National Harbor, but it shouldn't be too much trouble to get to a more central location. I have other friends who aren't Buffistas to visit, but they have to work around the Buffista get-togetherage.
