Everything went great until the very end when they said "yeah even if you pay month-to-month, you still have to commit to a full year and you pay a penalty for cancelling your enrollment early." Pretty tough sell when your kid's three and can't really commit to anything outside of a two-hour window.

I have requested a fan and humidifier in my room and the hotel is going to hook it up. I like this place already.

Re: Talk about your day thread
Went to the nearest Bureau of Land Management (about 45 min away) and picked up a lifetime entrance pass to all US National Parks in preparation for our upcoming road trip to the Grand Canyon. It covers entrance fees for me and up to three guests. The best part...it's free for prior service members. It doesn't cover the cost of camping in the parks, but we've yet to have a need for that.
