Default Oshkosh Housing???

Jim,
If you are considering motels/hotels, would you have ground transportation?
If so, how far would you consider driving?

As most of you know, after a fairly long 33 year attendance record at The
Show, Gail and I decided that we could only afford one long trip last year
and we had a "must do" radio show gig in Anchorage last July.

Montblack got my dorm reservations and I just flat forgot to re-register

for
this year. Even at this late date, we could probably get into the UW-O
dorms, but I'm just interested in what else is out there.

1. Camping is out. That was part of the deal. Don't even suggest it.

2. I've looked at the various residences for rent, but the problem is

that
you have absolutely no idea if they are the Taj Mahal of Oshkosh or Roach
Heaven.

3. I've also looked at a couple of the other colleges with dorms and they
are sort of pricey for what you get. UW-O ain't cheap, but it seems that
the other ones are further away, you get about the same features, but for
more money.

4. I was thinking of looking at the motels that seem to line Lake

Winnebago
pretty much all along the western shore. If anybody has first hand
knowledge of a good one fairly reasonable, would you pass it along?

5. Anybody else with first hand knowledge of something else that might
work, I'd appreciate knowing about it.
