Any suggestions for getting to the Bear Tooth Grill? Where is it exactly?
Don't have a car. Taxi? Any suggesrions would be appreciated.
Looking forward to a great meet. Or are we officialy a Do now?
Will check back later.
I think we might actually be an official do--I count 9 or 10 people! I PM'd Jenbel on her consolidated do-list thread, but she may not have gotten it yet (I think I just sent it yesterday).
I think I linked a Google map (with driving directions from the airport to the restaurant) to the words "Bear Tooth Grill" in the first thread. A cab from downtown shouldn't be more than $15, and it's almost directly on the way to the airport, so you might even ask the Comfort Inn if their shuttle can drop you off there on one if its runs to the airport. Any cabbie should know where it is, but if not, it's 1230 W 27th Ave. If I wasn't coming from the opposite direction (airport) at the last minute, I'd offer a ride...but it's only a couple miles south of downtown, so a cab shouldn't be too bad (cab fares are about $2.50 for flag drop and a bit over $2 per mile here, I think).

I could not resist another cheap run to ANC:
Sat 06/07 UA 123 SFO-ANC 20:12-23:51
Sun 06/08 UA 108 ANC-ORD 20:06-05:00+1
But it looks like I am missing the following by 4 minutes:
Ripper3785 Mileage Run #2
Date and time: Saturday 6/7 9:40p-11:55p
Location: ANC South Terminal (Upper One Bar?)
Visitors: Ripper3785, Sweet Willie, g_leyser, Mikey likes it, superscot (unconfirmed), ORDflyr
Hosts: jackal, BOB W
Are there any takers for a late lunch/early dinner on Sunday June 8th?
You might miss it by a little more than four minutes, as they'll all probably be waiting at the gate to board the equipment you're arriving on. But we can make sure someone in the group has an FT luggage tag or something so you at least know who to walk up to and say hi to!
I'll be around that Sunday, and I would be up for something. I think I suggested something on 6/9, but I think all of the people who are here on 6/9 are here on 6/8, too, so maybe we can just make something happen then...will update the first thread...
