Are there any Bed and Breakfast places in the area? Or, in an area where one can take public transportation? What about last minute attendees who have last minute changes that allow them to come? Although I doubt I can make it, the idea of visiting the upper Midwest is appealing. Right now I'm kind've enjoying the thought vicariously through the postings!
Except for the heat, July would work better for me or at least later in June. Festivals do make things tough re housing (no doubt the Palmer will be a lot more expensive that week).
On a slightly separate note ... I had no idea there were any hotels around that had *shared* bathrooms! Sounds very quaint!!! Except for practical purposes! Is that more typical in Chicago or other older cities in the north? (Sorry for the slight digression)
Is it possible to take a boat ride on Lake Michigan? Swim there? I kind've like the idea of being able to rent a room in a Univ. dorm possibly if it's relatively quiet in the summer. Some of us are a bit "older", y'know! <grin> Remember, too, it's a big country and some of us reside in distant areas!
I think it's a good idea to post a note on each message board - that's how I happened to wander into this!
Are there "related" places that might let us use a room for an afternoon? Like a Jungian library or some other psychologically related establishment? Or, a library or museum? I'm not really familiar w/Chicago. Also, I'm definitely not pushing any method or "brand" of psychology either - there is a Jungian center in this town. I guess I'm trying to think in terms of who (not including board users/writers) might see this as an opportunity to bring attention to their facility or might have similar interests (i.e., self development, mental wellness, whatever). Possibly even a little theater during the daytime?
Okay, I want to wish everyone a great time preparing and experiencing a get-together!
