Sunday Afternoon Hike/BBQ

tonyw · September 29th, 2007, 22:05

Is there any interest in doing a Monday afternoon hike/BBQ at Mt. Charleston? We'd have to rent a vehicle to get us there and do a run to a grocery store but it'd be a lot of fun.

Mt. Charleston is something like 45 minutes off the strip so we can do it easily. There are plenty of hikes that would last for a couple of hours round trip, so if we did it at like 2 PM, we'd be able to do that, then BBQ, and be back at something like 7 or 8. Then we could go clean up and tear it up.

It is looking like the round table discussion will maybe be Monday afternoon around 4 or 5. I would be happy to go hike but would want to be back in time for that.

kellwolf · September 29th, 2007, 23:44

Just don't get lost trying to find the place.

Doug Taylor · September 29th, 2007, 23:59

Lemme know what you guys decide and I'll get it on the calendar.

tonyw · September 30th, 2007, 21:55

I'm game for any time you folks want to get it done.

You tell me a time and we'll do it.

Maybe we could do it Sunday at say noon, before we can check into our hotels and before the recruiting sessions?

Kristie · October 1st, 2007, 02:12

Tony, It looks like the roundtables are going to happen on Monday.. so Sunday might work better for a hike. However, it all depends on whose going to the roundtables and whose going hiking!

Doug Taylor · October 1st, 2007, 02:34

Lemme know when you want it, including your contact data and I'll get it on the sched.

FlyChicaga · October 1st, 2007, 14:13

I'm game, but it can't interfere with the roundtable sessions or the airline recruiting event. I always love me a good hike!

tonyw · October 1st, 2007, 23:47

Let's do it at noon on Sunday. I figure nobody will be able to check into their rooms yet so we may as well do it. I'll rent a car and if folks are game for a BBQ, we can do that, too.

I need to know who's in.

Kristie · October 2nd, 2007, 02:57

There ya go Tony, that should help you accumulate names/head count!

Doug Taylor · October 2nd, 2007, 03:00

Okie doke, I'll carve it out on Sunday! PM me what contact method you'd like for the hike, Tony!

BobDDuck · October 2nd, 2007, 09:54

Assuming I'm able to get out there by then (and I should be) I'm in.

PilotWife76 · October 2nd, 2007, 18:18

I would be interested, I am still trying to get Pacman4x4 interested in going

If people want in, have them text me. We can do a short hike and a BBQ if we want to and be back in time for the recruiting sessions if they're at 5:00.

APAviator · October 2nd, 2007, 21:26

I'm also down for some hiking. I'll have a car if transport is needed as well, mind you it will be an econo-box unless they feel nice and upgrade me.

PilotWife76 · October 3rd, 2007, 10:23

I forgot to mention it - but we will have a car as well. I think we got a midsize.

Tony, I'm down!

This looks fun.

PacMan4x4 · October 7th, 2007, 00:50

As my lovely wife kindly pointed out for me--I would love to go on a hike instead of sitting on a Texas Hold em' table winning my fortune ;-) <clearing throat> please, add me to your list for the hike.

Pac Man (Brian)

TheShortOne · October 7th, 2007, 11:34

i'll put in a tentative yes, but not sure when I'll be arriving at this point...

OldTownPilot · October 10th, 2007, 23:19

If there is enough transportation out there, I'd love to go.

I finally saw the schedule and the choice seemed to be hike, golf, or lose money in the casinos. Well I don't golf, and I don't really want to spend too much more money than is necessary, so hiking it is!

DAnbert · October 11th, 2007, 10:29

I am in for the hike if they cant squeeze me in for golf.

Kristie · October 11th, 2007, 12:35

Tony, you have 13 listed now...I've included those that answered the poll.

BobDDuck · October 11th, 2007, 12:45

Out of the 13 do we have 3 cars? I think I see 2 cars in in this thread. If we need the 3rd I'll rent one. Prices look like $30 for the day. If people want to throw in a few bucks for gas I'll cover the car.

OldTownPilot · October 11th, 2007, 13:12

A few bucks for gas and a car (and even food) is certainly cheaper than a couple of hours in a casino.
