Travel Planning

I know people who love planning travel itineraries. 
I was wishing I was going to be traveling to Texas with one of them––it's just me––but I'm so  pleased with myself for the travel plans I made this afternoon (and it did take all afternoon), I'm vaguely glad I set myself up to do this. 

What I discovered:
a pleasant round-trip flight schedule; that their light rail runs to their airport (as ours does, here); 

and an Airbnb for a couple nights that is $200 cheaper (per night!) than the "deal" the downtown hotels are giving conference attendees.
And temps are supposed to be in the 70s.

Even if the publisher were paying (they're not), I wouldn't want to stay in a big box hotel when I could stay here:

I'm not much of a sight-seer. Once I've spent a couple hours in a coffee shop watching people, I imagine myself sitting in this little porch doing bear repair.
