Depends where you stay. We've got rooms as cheap as... $19/night at the
on-site residence (that's like, $2.59 Canadian ;>), if you don't mind
sharing a common area in the apartments. You get a locked bedroom, and a
cooking suite/living room/common bathroom per apartment.

Check out the resources/accommodation link on the website for full details

As for $100 of gas - who knows? Remember - we're just 4 hours north of the
Montana state border!

Dave

Um, those are rather clever ideas! One could also use Pisces for the water
beastie...
