I take a two month break from square dancing and all hell breaks loose. :)
Yes, it's all your fault. :-)
People have forgotten that we didn't even HAVE a hotel in Las Vegas in 1997 - it was torn down months before the convention - and still people managed to have a good time staying at different hotels and going to the conference center for dancing.
I wasn't there, but I have heard people recollect unfondly the death march in the heat to get to the dance venues from some hotels. Having just been to Las Vegas for the first time this past April for the CALLERLAB convention, I can only imagine how ugly it might have been in July.
I seem to recall the 2005 convention in Santa Clara, California--a suburb of San Jose, of all places--went just fine.
It was enormous fun, and the use of an outdoor tent was a brilliant improvisation.
