I understand many people in the US are being affected by the government shutdown.
I was thinking though that might mean some great travel deals in the US. Maybe it is too early, but I have already seen a drop in Vegas prices.
Has anyone else had the same idea? What are some key convention places that would be nice to visit?

I am headed to Vegas for a Convention in about 20 minutes (private sector, of course). San Diego, Boston and San Fransisco also come to mind as convention places.

Sorry, just got excited for a second. Hey, maybe now is the time to have the long-awaited, much-anticipated YM get-together. How can we resist, if it's a bargain?

Chicago is a big convention city. We're going up next year, and know there are certain months to avoid due to conventions. Weather should still be good right now. NYC should be nice, too.

It's a great time for leaf-peeping.

I suspect there are some pretty sweet deals around Yosemite! We've been busy all three days. There's actually a lot to do. We drove up to Mono and June Lakes on Tuesday. Plenty of leaf peeping at Grove Lake. And I'm not going to tell you guys about sneaking into the Mariposa Big Trees Grove today. But it was lovely with almost nobody there.

Viola, I'm thinking along your lines. I'd like a 4-day jaunt to the Bahamas, but alas, I haven't completely recovered from my torn rotator cuff, so the ocean is still off limits. I hadn't thought of Vegas. Orlando also comes to mine, maybe because I have a co-worker who has a brother in Orlando.
