Title: Las Vegas Oct 30-31 Appleseed Carpooling
Post by: Rafn on October 28, 2010, 03:17:14 PM
Anyone attending the Oct 30-31 Appleseed who is staying on the strip (or is near the Mirage) and wants to pool for car rental or taxi?

Thanks!

I don't know if you are familiar with the LV area, but renting a car will be the cheapest transportation resolution.  There's a load of construction detours, and the distances are substantial.  Getting a cab to zero in to the area at the CCSP will be a problem too.

Rafn,
I will be SB'ing this event, and staying @ Harrah's (saves Fred the hotel bill).. ::)...we will have a rental; so if you get over to Harrahs @ 0:early-thirty, will have a ride out to the range, if that works for you..... O0

You will, however, be captive audience to the Instructors as well..... >:D O0 @)

What say you? :cool2: ;D

Rafn,

Cabs in Vegas are funny. they make so much money working the strip you can barely get them to go off strip. People wait for hours. Not reliable.

Recommend Renting a car or taking Laylo up on his offer.

Hey Tom,

I will be leaving on Sat am @ 6:30am.....we will be at the range following the shoot, and then having an AAR afterwards, so please plan on staying, unless we can work out something else.....
Sunday will probably leave a bit later, say about 7:00.....
I am, as they say, somewhat anal about punctuality.....and I hate to wait.....I'm sure you know the feeling..... @@)

The cabs usually drop off in the rear by valet, so that will work.....let me know what hat/shirt you're wearing, so I'll know who you are......

As for me, God help me, look for the -Young- Kenny Rogers twin..... :))

Kinda hard to miss.... :-\

I won't have any ISP service while out there, they charge far more than it's worth....

See ya there!

Definitely - already located the taxi area - only about a 5 min walk.  Just look for the pelican 720 with lots of hazard tape.

Thanks!

Rafn,

Welcome to  Nevada.

I noticed a 907 area code on your cell.

Alaska?

You will probably be the longest distance to attend the shoot.

If you got any las vegas questions or need anything, drop me PM.
