Anyone interested in going out to Taliesin West

This is one of the original Frank Lloyd Wright structures and is pretty incredible.

Four Peaks is interesting for dinner - its down in Tempe.
I live right next to frankloyd! I am a new arizonian and a student at ASU...I'd love to come to the DO so count me as a 75% likely to be there! ^

Add me as a maybe. I just need to find a good airfare. Also I will want to stay at a Hilton or Starood hotel. Any recomendations that are resort style and close to the suggested Marriott hotels?

Of course the miniscule miles I'd get for hopping over to PHX; hmm, might need to look at a farther (further?) away Do...

Cheers.
This is going off thread but I note where you live

We will be staying in or around LAX in late October for a day before we head to Kansas City. Arriving at 7 am but will not get into our room until early pm. Is there something we can do to pass time that is relatively safe. Will be without transport

Thanks in advance

I suggest you take a look over in the Los Angeles forum. It depends on your luggage situation - there is a bus that runs down Sepulveda that will take you to Manhattan Beach Blvd and then you could walk the mile to the beach - bu tnot with luggage

I just stumbled onto this... sounds like fun!

I'd be glad to help plan restaurants, events, etc. One caution: I'm a pretty tough critic when it comes to Mexican food, though......

Ice Trojan, sorry you won't make it....


So, for out-of-towners coming to the Do, what would you like to see and do while here?? With 6 weeks to plan, we should start pulling things together soon.
