<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi All-- I'm wanting to attend my nephew's graduation from the police academy in Charlotte, NC on April 2, but want also to stay a few days. Me being there is supposed to be a surprise, so I need the list's help. The trip needs to be "frugal" and inexpensive. Can anyone living in Charlotte suggest reasonably priced motels which might also be close to restaurants that would have gf items, or be close to a health food store? I don't plan to rent a car (of course, that might change), but had hoped to simply use taxi cabs to get around. Any tips and suggestions are welcome as I don't have a clue about gluten-free resources in that part of the U.S. I'm sure that what I eat here is most likely called or marketed as something else in NC. Thanks a bunch...! Ayn/Kansas
