SFRR travel pooling

Post by fluffy »

So, some of us probably need to plan how we're going to travel from the airport to our respective housing locations.

I'll be arriving at Spokane airport at noon on Wednesday, and will want to get to the Rodeway Inn (which it sounds like a lot of people are staying at or near) and also to whatever central spot we're doing practicing and hanging-out at. Since I'll probably be one of the earlier people arriving, should I just plan on renting a car?

Your call on whether you want to rent a car or not. Rach and I have the day off, so we could pick you up at the airport if you like.

By the way: a group of our friends are planning to go see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince on Wednesday night. Any Songfighters are welcome to tag along if You're already in town, and have interest in seeing the movie.

ROCK!

I'm also arriving Wednesday, though much later than fluffy, and also staying at the Rodeway. I think I'll probably just get a cab from the airport and walk/hitch anywhere else I need to get to.

A lot of folks are staying at the Rodeway so probably it'll be easiest to get picked up at the airport by somebody (likely Glenn!) and then I am sure there will be much in the way of hanging-out and then afterwards we can all go to the Rodeway in a giant Katamari-esque mass of rock.

Rach and I will be picking Ken up around 10:30pm-ish so we'd be glad to give you a lift also depending on what time your flight arrives.

ROCK!

I'll be getting in Wednesday evening, and I'll be driving, so I can help shuttle folks around Wednesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday, on the other hand, I will more than likely be in no fit state to operate a motor vehicle! :D

My flight (Delta 1259) gets into GEG at 8:20pm Wednesday. A ride from you (or any of the SF contingent) would be greatly appreciated, but if not, I am resourceful. :)

Well, we should definitely work out some way for me to get to the Rodeway before you, what with us splitting a room and it only being in my name and so on.

Yes. You're going to arrive in Spokane eight hours ahead of me, so I doubt that'll be a problem.

Irwin and I will be in Spokane somewhere around 2-3pm Thursday. We're at the Rodeway also.
