    Thinking about heading up -- w. questions

    I used to head up to Loon Mountain on occasion back in "old days," but my wife and I attended more regularly after they moved the games down to the state fairgrounds. (It helped that we were able to stay with friends living in the area.) Since the games have re-relocated to Loon, we haven't been back. Loon is definitely a more picturesque location, but not quite as convenient for us.

    Anyhow, I'm thinking we might try to head up for at least one day, but had a couple of questions for some of the regular attendees among us:

    What's the general take on the "Tartan Dinner and Dance" on Friday evening? What sort of program is typically on offer? (I gather the ubiquitous Brigadoons and special guests St. Thomas Pipe Band will perform.)

    Is there any prayer of finding a place to stay at this late date? Making a day trip of it wasn't too big of a deal, but if we stick around for evening events I'm not especially looking forward to driving back in the middle of the night.

    I like a nice short parade that ends at a bar.
