Texas hotels filling fast
http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/localnews/stories/092205dnwebhotels.7d8eb4e2.html

Every hotel and motel between the Gulf of Mexico and Oklahoma is booked, Pat Miller of the Texas Hotel and Lodging Association said Wednesday.

"There is no room at the inn," Miller said. "Anything along the I-35 corridor is full. I have a call into Oklahoma City right now to see if they have any availability."

Texas hotels already were near capacity accommodating people attending fairs, concerts and conventions as well as Hurricane Katrina evacuees.

Not only are much of the spaces in San Antonio, Austin, Dallas and Fort Worth booked, but so are those in smaller cities - some nowhere near obvious evacuation routes - including Abilene, San Angelo, Del Rio and Denton. Wichita Falls may have a few rooms left, Granbury has some bed-and-breakfast spaces available and Lubbock has openings, he said. Otherwise, head to Oklahoma or elsewhere in West Texas, Miller said.
