At this point my plans are to drive up Saturday AM. I don't know who
all is driving in or attempting flying in. If we could change things
for better flying weather I would vote for that but it may be too late.
Has anyone called the resort to see if it's possible for credit? I
would think there would be rooms available as the season winds down. If
not I'll be looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday and a few beers
Saturday night.
Regards,
Jeff R.
