I'm working with a few others to help organize a party or 2 in DC along with getting together to watch the parade on inauguration day.

As for hotel accommodations, well good luck. I have my room and roommates already. I would suggest looking at the DC metro and finding hotels that are near the metro line.

1. Thanks for taking this on, Lynne

My daughter and I are still deciding what to do. If we can stay with a friend of hers in Silver Spring, we may drive to DC. Ohio and PA in January may not be the best weather to drive in, but we'll play it by ear and watch the weather reports.

2. I sent you details about my hotel - there may be room left there

since it's not a public hotel but a private one.

3. I'm really trying to opt for the stay-with-a-friend plan

as I'm trying not to spend too much on the trip if I can avoid it.
