If you do not want to stay at Budget in or Red Carpet in, the closet hotel you will find is in South Boston.
I checked and there are 7 to 8 rooms left at Budget Inn. A total high end establishment at 40 bucks a night weekend rate.
Bed Bugs and Used Hypodermic needles included. HURRY UP AND BOOK! Otherwise, can we camp at Danville?

Been auto-crossing on and OFF for a while now, yet I find myself driving more OFF than ON.

That would be nice, and honestly I'd do it for sure, I really don't like paying for hotel rooms and would almost rather just drive back and forth.

I suspect the answer is no though, i'm sure there's something about having folks on ground somewhat un-supervised over night.

wound up staying at the Comfort Inn somewhere in Danville. A bit expensive, but hopefully sans bedbugs...
