Oh, and last chance to remind me of any wines I need to bring for anyone. Going tomorrow to get them, and won't have time on Friday to go back.

There are so many orders that I'm like anyone want to split and you're like if you want some I might part with some. Of course I never keep track. Anyway if there's sparkling or port you want to get rid of for space just bring it out and let me know how much to pay.

tenuki, do you still want 2 bottles of the Summerland Late Harvest Viognier? I have 2 bottles for sanity and 2 for you.

I am also bringing 2 case shipping boxes, 1 for deb and one for eric. Do I need to bring any more?

I also agree re: fatburger. Much better than in n out!

I'll probably be rolling in anywhere from 7:30-9:30pm depending on traffic. So let me know where you end up and I'll join you if you're still out when I arrive.

Any wine requests either for Saturday dinner or in general? Otherwise I'll close my eyes and pick something random. Did we decide on a theme for Saturday night wine?

Oh right, sure. CAGrl's probably wondering how much wine she's taking back for me, haha.

All might not make it back.

jealous... i have another day of work until heading to vegas...

mommadeb and cagrl - it looks like my plans are changing a bit and I won't be heading out of phx until noon'ish, which will probably get me into Vegas about 6ish depending on traffic. I think I'm going to pass on dinner, but I'd be up for meeting later in the evening for drinks or whatever.

That's fine. Mommadeb and I can meet up for dinner (or not) and maybe pick a place to meet for drinks? Now where to meet for drinks with everyone coming in later???

should we call/text when we arrive and then decide on dinner or drinks?

sukeiasa wrote:jealous... i have another day of work until heading to vegas...

I'm all checked in too. We're not flying until tomorrow, though neither of us is working tomorrow. Can't wait to get out there.

Though first I need to start packing, I suppose. LOL

I am in mad laundry time then packing. Having the power go out last night really has me behind... plus working and then a Relay for Life "after" party.... aggghhh oh well .... Can't wait til tomorrow!!

mommadeb1 wrote:should we call/text when we arrive and then decide on dinner or drinks?

Sure. That works for me. I should be in Vegas by 4 or so.

Safe Travels everyone!

klezman, no theme was decided upon - bring a favorite, or random wine. We'll taste from light to heavy.

sukeiasa, the wine arrived at my mail center and is now in the cooler.

re drinks, remember if you're gambling, you'll get free drinks. If you're not, you'll pay dearly for a drink.

CAGrl wrote:Sure. That works for me. I should be in Vegas by 4 or so.

I think we land around 4:30.

how many bottles should I be bringing? I think I will bring at least 1 from home, and then go pick up some when we get there

So we pay dearly either way . Waiting for Bart to airport, should actually make this flight!

Sorry about being noncommittal about Friday evening plans. A lot depends on how different pool teams are doing and if my friends are still in it. I'll bug cagrl sometime to see what y'all are up to though.

no worries!!

mommadeb, 1 or 2 bottles from home will be plenty. We have 6 different bottles to share from the awards dinner, I always open up several bottles, many others are bringing 2 bottles.

Also, anyone have the 6th bottle of the Esoterica Port Series from long ago? Care to share? imagine was so generous in bringing her set, but we need the blend to complete the set. I'd like to open the set.

I'm packing my 2008 1869 Scott Harvey Zin. Also, tenuki, no worries about Friday night. It seems like we're not all sure what's going on. I will be walking the strip so maybe I can meet up with some people that way. I will text tenuki and mommadeb when I get in and start walking.

I think I will bring 2 from home, and keep my fingers crossed they don't go into "shock"!!!

Let's do that! I'd love to walk with somebody else for company.

Question for people. I have 1 bottle of Wellington Duke that I'm thinking of bringing over. Would that be a bottle people would be interested in?

great!! are we eating before or during our walk?

mommadeb1 wrote:great!! are we eating before or during our walk?

I guess it depends on how hungry we are. Play it by ear?

sanity wrote:My vote is for either of the whites; they sound interesting. The Fumin I've had, and agree, maybe it needs to be kept longer, though it was very tasty when I ha it last year.

I just realized that I have no idea where either of those whites are. For some reason, their "location" in my cellar never got recorded in cellartracker. So all I know is that they are somewhere here in my condo....amongst the other 500+ bottles.

So....unless I actually find one of them....anyone else have any thoughts of what I could/should bring?
I really should get to packing, so I'll take a look again later to see what my options are.

I think you were going to bring a half case box for tiger.

Do you want me to hold your wine until the rpm tour? I don't have the optimal storage conditions but I'm sure it should be okay for 2+ months. Let me know.
