Togo Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 ***EDIT*** looks like we will be aiming for the weekend of saturday september 16thso clear your calendars and start saving your coin for the slots!***EDIT***On the last cruise, we lost Tim and Joni to laughlin - and they said they go quite often for an overniter - i think this would be a fun cruise both up and back and "to each their own" once we get there i guess?would anybody else be interested in this? i would like to go up on a saturday morning and return on a sunday some time, long enough to recouperate before work on monday!so..........what say you all? - Tim and Joni said they go almost quarterly - even a quarterly laughlin group run would be fun - but, i don't want to intrude on tim and joni's trips so - let's hear your gripes,- requests, interest, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P51tj Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 No intrusion!!!! the more the merrier!!! I can call our Host at Colorada Belle and see what maybe she can offer up considering we should "own" part of the place by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LT4ME Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 If it's between December & April, we're there for sure, as some of Angie's family comes down to snowbird there. In the summer, we might be interested, but it depends when/how much etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZYDMND Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I would love to go.....when is it...is the big question' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratch Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 My .02 is that if we left on a Sat. by the time we get there, kinda burned out somewhat. That means the evening is tiring and possibly not as much fun/party factor for us all. Now if we left on a Fri. (I'm just saying) that would allow for enough rest and playtime for Sat. Then we leave after we eat on Sun. or ?? Like I said...my .02 This thought process is based on experience also :D otherwise, I would of just had a glass of stfu and not mentioned it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Togo Posted June 1, 2006 Author Share Posted June 1, 2006 friday night and saturday night would be fine with me too, i just brought up the idea of a one nighter due to restrictions on most of the other members. that's why i'm guaging interest - who's up for 2 nights? who's up for 1 night?i guess those of us that can stay 1 night can - and those that can stay 2 can - it would be nice for the group to all drive up together though!so keep the complaints coming!

P51tj Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 My .02 cents worth. When we go Johnnie and I always go for one night. We leave here around noon and are there with no problem by 4pm. Gives us plenty of play time before a late dinner... and then more play time. Sleep in, grab some breakfast..more play time and leave around 1pm and are home around 5pm. We are in for a 1 nighter.

We are in for a 1 nighter. that's kinda what i was thinking - so - can a MOD put a poll in this thread? or is it too late?maybe we can vote for 1 or 2 nightthen the thing will be to have EVERYONE post an ideal time - whethere they know they have planned time off, or they can request the time off early enough in advanced that there would be no excuse to miss this one!
