Try this: Park

Here is the raw url: http://maps.google.com/maps/place?oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&gl=us&resnum=4&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=RANCHO+SAN+RAFAEL+PARK&fb=1&gl=us&hq=RANCHO+SAN+RAFAEL+PARK&hnear=Reno,+NV&cid=2165898774647522972&ei=s0DWS4zsLI_YsgPosPTVAg&sa=X&oi=local_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CBYQnQIwAw

ok as i mentioned earlier, i went to the park this morning and found 9 tables w/ their own bbq pits...now the thing im going to worry about is finding at least 2 of them as close together as possible to each other, since it will be on a friday before the kids get out of school, there may not be that many of them taken up...the 3 "bungalows" are for a fee and i havent asked how much but i probably cant afford it :x ..so we'll have to settle for the bbq's and tables around the playground...some are at a distance from it so im hoping those i will be able to get... :rocker

now i said noon but i cant pick up my pay check till after 12pm but im going to ask if i can come a bit earlier so i can go buy some of the supplies needed...like plates, napkins, ketchup and mustard (unless anyone doesnt want mustard, i wont get it or just get a small bottle of it instead of a huge one)...and i may be working the night before so im going to be very tired w/ only a couple hours sleep, knowing me i probably cant sleep, too excited for the meet, lol :lol ...

Does anybody know of a good, cheap hotel? I'm on a tight budget and would like to stay close to town and not an hour away, if possible.

Use Google maps maps.google.com and type in Reno, NV and click on Search Nearby. Type in Motel 6 or Super 8. There is a Motel 6 about 4 miles southwest of the park. 1400 Stardust Street, Reno, NV‎ - (775) 747-7390 We stayed there a few years ago. Nice.
I think everything for Fridays and Saturdays will be around $50-$80.

Well, maybe we need to consider an indoor location as an alternative? Leave a note on the door of the park?

Maybe we should also have a check in for 3 p.m. Thursday, this topic, and see if geminiheartz has snow on the roads?

Reno is predicted for 52 deg. F and 31 deg. F at night and I'm car camping. :'( With 30% chance of precipitation.

I will check in. But by that time I hope to be a long way from home. I will bring my laptop to check in. I will be in tomorrow only a little bit. Take care all and I hope to see you in Reno.

OK, so I picked up 4 packs of Nathan's hot dogs and 8 liters of Pepsi products (Mt. Dew, Pepsi, Cherry Pepsi). Sorry, no diet.

:banghead :banghead i really hate when storms intefere w/ planned stuff!!arrggghh! :'( but i doubt if theres snow it wont stay long, this same type of weather happened last week and it didnt stay till like afternoon time...but then again weather around here is so unpredictable :ermm: ...im keeping an eye on the storm praying and hoping it disappears by thursday!!

i cant think of an indoor place that we can meet at besides a specific casino?!if thats the case we can meet at the grand sierra...theyve got bowling lanes in there, small movie theatre (3) and an arcade area besides the casino part...

let me know what i can do in case it stays nasty through friday?
