V, are you willing to take on the group rental for anyone who wants to participate?
If so, when is your deadline? J&J said last night they want to go, but I think that if you are making the reservations they should be commiting directly to you.
Jason takes charge of our group reservations for Bend so they know how difficult it is to do this.
Thom and I will probably go with the place I listed before. Mostly 'cause I've never rented a house before and I was little freaked by cleaning fees. Probably the way it's always done - but shouldn't regular stuff be included in the cost?
Anyway they say the two bedrooms sleep six. I'm thinking there must be a fold out couch. One room has twin beds. We'll be cozy, but that would work for the 5 of us.
There are other options available too - single rooms with two beds for about 100. I like having a kitchen so we can eat before we go. Belgian wafflles with maple syrup and peanut butter. The frozen waffles are good, but I do have a prep the night before recipe...

OK, just wrote out the check and addressed the envelope. Signed up for the 103 miler.
I ride pretty well on granola, yogurt and a nanner so mornings are pretty easy for me. However a bit of coffee wouldn't hurt. I'll probably pack a cooler with breakfast and coffee makings (Peet's of course). Gosh, hope we're prepared. The ride is only 5 months away. :D
When Thom gets home from the doctor's this morning, I'll double check that we're still in and then I'll make the reservations. Finally! I'm leaning towards the double with a Lakeside view. Two reasons - it has an extra half bath and it has a deck. I'm a sucker for decks with even partial views of anything.
Are Jenny and Jason still in?

Just checked the pics - charming, my dear. :p
