I'm not a CPA (but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express) but my accountant deducts all those things. There are some special rules on meals and what you can deduct, if you stayed overnight, etc. I keep a log sheet in my planner and transfer it to an Excel spreadsheet and e-mail it to my account. He likes that because he can sort it, etc. and the number total them selves. It also helps that my account was the H on my Div III football crew for about 5 years.

He keeps me out of trouble
