It is terrifically low cost to be at a very nice hotel in Minneapolis the second half of November because it is 7 – 10 degrees outside.  The Nicolette Mall has these very cool walkways that connect the buildings along the Mall.  The Radision Plaza Hotel has an excellent restaurant right there off the lobby with a nifty espresso machine and they stock soy milk.  tres cool.

I really like the gentlemen in Minneapolis.  That’s a good bonus.
