    Place d'Armes Hotel New Orleans

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, all for the information. I had booked the Ritz Carlton because they offer a 700 sq ft room with 2 KING beds and a sitting area for only $279 per night, but when I showed the photos on their website to my 9 year old, she said "nope, too fancy for me--please pick...

    SkcMom- Thanks for the link! I have been to Branson a lot when I was much younger--my entire family lives in SW Missouri (Nixa/Ozark/Rogersville) but I don't get down there very often. Everyone tells me how much it has grown and changed and it's a little overwhelming. We are doing Silver...

    How's Frontier Air?

    We flew Frontier in August 2005 from Chicago to Denver and it was absolutely, without a doubt, the best flight we have ever had. Excellent flight attendants, smooth flight and due to the individual TVs at each seat, it was the quietest flight I have ever been on!! :cool1: We would fly them...

    self-employed - how do you set up your retirement account

    I have an SEP-IRA and I set it up at my bank. I know the interest may not be the greatest compared to other financial institutions, but it has very little risk and I feel comfortable this way. I max out my contribution every year.:thumbsup2

    Arizona - anyone?

    Our first trip to Arizona was for CUBS Spring Training and we stayed at the Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak in Phoenix.
