Columbia, the capital. We have the State House, the Zoo, the State Museum,
the Art Museum, the Fire Station Museum, one of the top 20 libraries in the
country. There are a TON of historic houses to tour, and Charleston is a two
hour drive. (Ad there's always the pool at the hotel! <G>)

But he might be VERY surprised how much fun it IT! There were several dads
there last year---maybe a few will come on and say how they felt about it.

My husband will probably be there. I really want him to go because I think it will really help him to understand all the unschooling concepts.
He doesn't get to read and write about it all, he has to be out earning a living.

Oh, and Kelly, is the conference being held at the hotel? Just wondering, or my dh was wondering. And if the kids come with,,,would there be things for them to do? What do you think? Or do they just hang out with the adults?
Thanks.

I'm thinking of staying a few days or even a week AFTER the conference,
renting a car and traveling around a bit.

Also thinking of bringing my 12 yo daughter along.

So - if you had, say 4 or 5 days to travel around - what would you do
there?

Sandra stayed a few days afterwards last year, but let's not repeat THAT.
OK?? <G>

What do you LIKE to do?

If you like historical stuff, SC is packed. Seeing the east coast beaches
might be fun---watching the sun come UP for a change. Charleston (two hours
away) is a beautiful, historical, and exciting city. Savannah, GA is just
down the road from Charleston. The Blue Ridge Mountains are just two hours
north and and are a cool place to be in the heat of August. Myrtle Beach is a
famous and popular option, although no respectable South Carolinian would be
caught dead there! <g>

By the end of the conference, you'll probably have a bunch of offers for
places to stay! <g>

Tell me more of what you like. and I'll get some ideas together.

Ah, Myrtle Beach. My mother wanted the grandkids to go to Myrtle Beach with
her, she offered to pay for the hotel for a week. She thought I got pregnant
with my now almost 2yo son to get out of going-- i wish! So we went went my
son was only a month old. I spent most of the time in the hotel room with
him, where we could privately nurse in comfort. My kids did have fun, but I
am not the big vacation type. I have a pop-up camper, and vacation to me is
in the woods somewhere. I mentioned this conference to her, knowing she
would want to go back to the beach. She could keep my smaller kids,
yanno.....LOL

Well she is taking 2 weeks off in early august for either Alaska or Seattle,
so that ain't happening. So are there any great campsites in Columbia?
Preferably a cheap state park close by? Don't know I if can talk hubby into
dragging a camper from Ohio, but I'm thinking......

As the conference coordinator, I shouldn't be advertising for campsites!
Selling hotel rooms are how we "pay for" the ballrooms. But I'd rather have
you there than not! <g> Google "Sesquicentennial Park" for camping info.

Go to the website:

www.schoolsoutsupport.org/holiday.html

All the info is there. It's a lovely hotel (with no ramps!) with a pool and
within quick walking distance of LOTS of restaurants.
