Help with baseball (spring training) in PHX, ARIZONA please.? -

Okay, some questions background info. I ll be driving in from Las Vegas thusly will have a car. Will be picking up a friend from the airport (there in phx). Most likely stay 3 nights (maybe just 2) depending on $ situation.I ve been to PHX a few times, but this was a decade ago. Budget isnt huge. Where to stay? Is downtown dificult to navigate, park, etc. The biggest cost of them all will be lodging. I m used to places like days inn, holiday inn express, fairfield, clarion. Needs to be safe, clean. Doesnt need to be fancy. Suggestions?Also, what about booking lodging and tickets? Do it now? Cant remember when tickets become available (buying direct)? But, some ticket joints like stubhub already have offerings available i guess. Is it true that games sell out often?I want to see Seattle for sure (for suzuki). I ve actually been to the stadium in Peoria. Is that still where SEA plays?Restaurant suggestions? We both like mexican food. For the most part our $ is going to be dedicated to:tix, lodging, food that s about it. Thank you.

Your M s share the complex with my Padres. This is the address with some watered down directions:Peoria Sports Complex16101 N. 83rd Ave Peoria, AZ 85382 Driving Directions:Take either I-10 or I-17 to Loop 101(Agua Fria Freeway) Take Loop 101 West, if traveling on I-17, or Loop 101 North if traveling on I-10. Exit Bell Road east (exit 14) Turn south on 83rd Avenue Peoria Sports Complex is approximately one-quarter mile down on the east side of 83rd Avenue. This shows a lot of hotels in the area.http://local.yahoo.com/results?stx=hotel��On Bell Road there are a ton of eateries. Many Mexican food joints.When should you book? Well I would say to book your hotel ASAP. You can buy your tickets a little later if you need to. The reason I say this is that there are so many Snowbirds coming to Phoenix in the winter and spring that they really take up a lot of the rental rooms. I d say that the valley s population increases by almost 20% this time of year. You can really tell by the drop in traffic congestion when they leave.

Bellaire is about 10 minutes from Houston. Bay City is about an hour and 20 minutes from Houston.

What is the best mountain to snowboard at in colorado? -

im going to colorado at the end of march, and i want to know which mountain i should go to.

It depends on what you like to do when snowboarding (terrain park, cruising on groomers, extreme terrain, etc.) Breckenridge is fun and less expensive than Vail or Aspen. Steamboat is also great, lots of different terrain and fun at night. Crested Butte and Telluride have sick terrain, but if you re not truly and expert then you could be happy at any of the the other mountains. Winter Park is fun but I think the terrain there can be a little boring. So I guess I m recommending Steamboat or Breck! The good thing about Breckenridge is you are in Summit County and therefore close to other mountains like Keystone, Copper, Loveland (which is never very crowded), and Vail in case you want to mix it up.

Really any of them, its Colorado, but a buddy of mine goes out to Breckenridge and has a blast. Theres been a few ski/snowboard videos shot there, so he must be on to something.
