WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
-
Ok, I have a bone to pick! I was #2 on the list and now I have dropped down
Can't wait to see ya'll.
NVDiane - what time are you arriving on Thurs? Send me a PM please or post it here. You have the room booked and I don't want to get there too early. I am trying to make my airline reservations this week.
-
Laura you ROCK for doing this!
-
No biggy Lilah, but thank you !
Off to work for me.................................... Have a great day!
-
Can someone tell me about how much the cab ride should cost from the airport? Last time was around $23 and apparently, the bellhop said that the cabbie must have taken us the long way around because it should have been way less than that.
Terri
-
Terri -- when you get in the cab tell him you want him to take local streets (NOT the highway) ... suggest Paradise Road which parallels the Strip (Las Vegas Blvd) and then the driver can shoot up Flamingo, take a right onto Las Vegas Blvd and then only have to travel a short distance in the bad traffic to the Mirage. Here's a link to a map where you can see what I mean.
http://www.lasvegastourism.com/map_strip1.htm
The long way there is via a highway that circumnavigates the strip and costs more for sheer mileage. When you take local streets (specifically Paradise) it costs more like $15. The airport is so close to the strip, I don't know why they built that highway access... except to pad the cabbies' pockets.
-
PLEASE KEEP OUR CLARE IN YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS TOMORROW!!
Her surgery is tomorrow, Friday 8/19 at Legacy Good Samaritan in NW Portland. The whole whopping kaboodle starts at 1:00 p.m. when she checks in and gets labs, then at 3:00 she goes to the Breast Center for bilateral injections to look for sentinel nodes on both sides, then her surgery is scheduled for 5:00 p.m. (which in OR terms will probably be closer to 6:00 or so after preceding cases inevitably run longer than expected). -
God Bless her! I sent her an email today Janet, that got returned..... please let her know I had tried to send her my love... poor dear!
-
Power Prayers sent Clare!! ((HUGS)) & GOD BLESS
!!
Thanx Janet for getting the information from her, I was waiting to hear from her, so glad you did!! Now just have to send her all our best & wait to hear how things went!!
-
Terri I bought my package off of orbitz and the round trip to and from the airport in a shuttle was 15.00. I also ised this last year and honestly it wasnt bad. I think I was like the 2nd or 3rd stop.
-
Ladies,
at this point.... 10 of you have not contacted me on what activities you will be joining with us in Vegas. Here are the ones who I need to hear from to pass it along to the schedulers:
TraceyZ and her friend( who I assume will add herself to the lists...lol) Teresa and Randi, Jill(Lovmyself) and her mom, Cruzer2, Vicki, Karen(KJBell) and StLcardsfan. Also, our dear Clare... who might not be able to tell us yet.... which we totally understand!
-
Hi Laura, Just sent you a pm.
Clare, you are in my prayers, sending you many strong (((((HUGS))))).
I can't wait to see everyone in VEGAS. So what is the count down?
(((((Hugs))))))
Cheryl
-
Sorry sorry! sent laura a pm just now. I can't wait to get to Vegas. the thought keeps me sane as I get two little kids ready for school. I mean really - my parents never sent me off with a "comfort" package in case of catastrophe. Are they really going to read some letter I wrote under protest while they're huddled somewhere waiting for rescue eating stale granola bars and cashews. And why can't the school buy their own wet wipes and paper towels? that's my rant for the day
Come on Vegas!
-
Amen to all that Kristina....... I am SO GLAD my days of all that have passed.... Writing a NOTE.... good grief....
-
Ladies,
Since so many are coming in Wed and Thursday.... I will NOT be putting together an AIRPORT meet and greet. There are cabs there in PLENTY to get you to the hotel. Just tell them to take you to the Mirage.... and they will get you there.
-
Any interest in a BCO banner??
-
What kind of Banner are you thinking of ? I am sending the moderator a PM.
-
Just joined after meeting Tracey recently, what a great lady! Hoping I can join you all in Vegas!
-
Welcome Annette !!! Yes, our Tracey is a doll!
-
Thank you Estepp, it is nice to have a forum like this.
-
Ladies -- when you get in the cab tell them to take Paradise Road route (local streets) to Mirage (NOT the highway).. it is cheaper (even with traffic).
Laura -- are you PMing the moderators about the banner?
-
i just saw my beautiful black save the tata's t-shirt in my closet and wanted to make sure we will be wearing them to the piano bar again this year.... if so, our vegas virgins will need to get them ordered. i got mine at savethetatas.com , also available on other sites!!!
hugs, karen
-
HI LADIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AS THE DATE DRAWS CLOSER IT GETS MORE EXCITING! YAAAAAY!!!!! I AM TRYING REALLY HARD TO GET THE PIANO BAR TO GIVE US A DISCOUNT, THEY ARE KINDA STUBBORN BUT WE SHALL SEE WHAT HAPPENS! FINGERS CROSSED IM WAITING FOR A REPLY NOW.
ALSO PM ME IF THERE ARE ROOM CHANGES TO BE MADE. THE LIST AT THE TOP OF THE THREAD IS FAIRLY ACCURATE. IF NOT PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
LILAH, THANKS FOR POINTING OUT THE CHEAPER ROUTE.
ME AND MY PARTNER IN CRIME GISELLA WANT TO THANK YOU LAURA FOR TAKING THE COUNTS AND WORKING ON THE BANNER! YOU ROCK
THANKS TO ALL WHO ARE HELPING MAKE THIS THE GREATEST REUNION EVER!!!!!!!!! HERE'S A BIG MUWAH!
SEE YOU IN VEGAS LADIES!!!!!!!!
-
Hello - now that we are getting so close (and so excited) can someone share about what everyone will be wearing? Just how dressed up does everyone get? Or is every event sort of a come as you like thing except for the piano bar t-shirts?
Thanks for the info in advance.
Jane
-
We usually dress up for the Friday night meet and greet... a dress.... or nice pantsuit.... whatever you like to dress up in....
The rest of the time seems to be DRESS HOW YOU LIKE and are most comfortable.
Yes, the Piano bar... we wear our Tata tee's!
I think this question will come up again within a few weeks of our trip.....it always gets busy on this thread a few weeks before " take off" LOL
-
Haven't heard anything else about Clare yet...still sending Power Prayers!!
Can ya all believe Vegas is slighty more than a month away 38 days TATA'S!!
WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I'll find out about my next surgery this Friday(gall stones & bladder) & it shouldn't be a problem about me still coming..just a overniter from what I've heard from other's who've had it done, but then I get reminded that I'm not NORMAL LOL LOL You all know that I'll bounce right back quickly!!
Take care Chow GOD BLESS
((HUGS)) XOXO Susie
-
Wow 38 days -- that is Awesome!
Tracey -- Piano Bar giving you trouble? Harumph! Didn't they give us a discount the past two years! What the heck? And we were HAPPENING!
Re: dress code -- what Laura said! I'm not a big dress person (nor am I a jeans person) so I wore what I wear all the time (to all things LOL) -- something between casual and dressed up.
