I've been in Utah but not much. I looked it up and there are Hampton Ins in 17 cities and towns, some of which I've never heard of. >Yeah, I been to a lot of expensive hotels, and when I compare what >I use vs. the amenities offered (and pay for), they're not worth it as >an overnighter.

We do stay in Homewood Suites type places sometimes for one night. At times there isn't much difference in price between them and Hampton Inns. We have a Verizon broadband card and the passenger can check while the other is driving. Usually I'm doing the checking when my wife drives.

On the rare occasion that I am a passenger when my wife is driving, I go into "wife impersonation mode" which means I say all the same things to her that she says to me when I'm driving. Oh, and my wife is one of the few people whi drive faster than me. ;-) -- - RODNEY Next WDW Vacation? Who knows!

I don't shell garden peas, either. Now, I wouldn't give up a good steak, burger or Italian sausage for it, but I really do like tofu and edamame. -- - RODNEY Next WDW Vacation? Who knows!
