I also just called and they said call back later--I figure between Minnies and The Tiki Bar at the Tropics we will be covered either way!!!! How about a warm up somewhere?? tee hee.
When I think of glamorous vacation destinations, I think of .... MODESTO!!!!

THIS JUST IN: The DJ crap was a fluke. It won't happen that night or probably ever again. I will bring a few cd's and we'll play OUR music. Hawaiian, APE, Martin Denny, Les Baxter and so on. That would be downstairs in OUR lounge area.

Oh WOW, I am going to stay at the Blu-Lite one day if it kills me! er, I didn't mean it quite that way...but that sure is an odd name for the motel if you think of "spirit lights" in graveyards and stuff like that!
They have a cafe, right? MrSmiley, no doubt there IS a blue plate special!!!
(Maybe someday...a HALLOWEEN party lies in store for us all at the Blu-Lite! bwah ha hahahaha!)
As for New Years...not sure. We may be at the Conga or something more local. I want to hear what the Minnie's DJ situation is, too.
Dangergirl, I believe there are some newer luxury hotels somewhere in Stockton. I have a feeling I spotted one once looming over the dive bars somewhere in downtown. But it/they may be overpriced.
Hmmm. "Luxury hotels in Stockton." That is an odd sentence. Perhaps I shouldn't think about that too hard.
Anyway, the Days Inn in Molesto where Sandy, Unga and I bunked down for the Valley Crawl was actually nice. Probably not up to the "standard,"  but genuinely nice and not overpriced.

Ok, Smiley and Dangergirl just booked a room at the Best Western Townhouse Lodge on 909 16 th St in Modesto (a block away from Minnies )for New Years Eve!!!
The room is a modest $74.70 AAA rate through Travelocity or Orbitz. Maybe the others will stay at this motel and if Minnies gets too crazy we could have a Motel party!!! ZAZZ!

I promise to stay up until at least 12:30 this time!

Mr. Smiley is chickening out--he is going to Palm Springs instead this year. Sorry to bail on Modesto, have fun y'all!!
