Hi Folks,
I'm new to the Forum and a bit new to SketchUp as I'm an urban planner, but a wannabe urban designer. Late last year I registered PlanGreen (http://www.plangreen.net) as a Woman Business Enterprise in Oregon. As a struggling small business in this economy, I am trying to keep costs down.

I'm hoping to share the cost of a hotel/motel room with someone registered for Basecamp. I am in outings groups where I have shared lodging with males perfectly platonically with no problems and that would be my intention this time too. I've noted that most of the instructors are male, so that may be true of most of the participants too--or at least most of the participants on this list. I'm frustrated that SketchUp did nothing to facilitate sharing!

Would anyone like to save on their own hotel bill? I am considerate, quiet, respectful, fun, self-reliant, non-smoking, non-snoring--and from the looks of things, I'd rarely be there.

I'm in my 50s, but I have friends in different age groups. I'm also interesting, entrepreneurial and thoughtful. I've attached a photo. You won't be sorry if you offer to share. Besides, wouldn't you love to have a friend in Portland, Oregon that you could stay with when you visit?

I'm new to the SCF and I'm planning to be there, but so far I have no housing. As I posted in a message earlier today, I'd like to share.

Hi Folks,
I'm new to the Forum and a bit new to SketchUp as I'm an urban planner, but a wannabe urban designer. Late last year I registered PlanGreen (http://www.plangreen.net) as a Woman Business Enterprise in Oregon. As a member of the Congress for New Urbanism, I thought I could find housing amongst our members, but that has not worked out. As a struggling small business in this economy, I am trying to keep costs down.

My preference would be to find someone on the list (going to Basecamp or not) who lives near Mountain View who could offer me a floor to sleep on (I can bring camping gear if needed). I'm a considerate guest--quiet, respectful, self-reliant, non-smoking, non-snoring--and from the looks of things, I'd rarely be there.

My next choice would be to share the cost of a hotel/motel room with someone registered for Basecamp. I am in outings groups where I have shared lodging with males with no problems, but for propriety's sake (and perhaps a quiet night's sleep), I prefer female. Would anyone like to save on their own hotel bill?
