I guess they want their money either way. Depending on the logistics of the PW and attendees, you might be able to drop in Ft Collins and a CC member returning to Denver or points south, could drop you off at DIA for your flight. Maybe, maybe not. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 17, 2018 Author Share Posted May 17, 2018 ok, I think I have a car plan. If I rent from the downtown denver location and return it there, it's $170 and I can then take the train to the airport ($9 and about a mile walk from enterprise). seems reasonable. as to what we do... I've got no idea but I will be bringing my tent anyways so an overnight camp friday or saturday would be sweet. Last time I was in Denver I had my Jeep and we hit some trails and camped in the mountains. I have no idea where that was since I was just tagging along with Rick (xjs4ever) and his buddies. This time I will likely have a tiny car. I'm entirely relying on the knowledge of the locals for all this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted May 20, 2018 Author Share Posted May 20, 2018 further research has shown that I can rent a cargo van from enterprise for a little more than the compact car and the van will come with unlimited miles and an attached "mobile apartment" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 been there, done that. pianos suck. but I'm happy to help if nothing else is going on. seriously though. someone needs to take the reins and plan a thing. any ol' thing. I can't really organize much with minimal knowledge of the area and no home base to say "come to me". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I signed up for the CO Comanche club on Facebook just so I could see if there was any action with your upcoming visit. I haven't been back to get an update but will and let you know what I find out. I've only met one other Comanche person here (Yellaheep) and CC member Hypoid. Back atcha later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokinn Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 OK, it appears I am now a member. FB is a mystery to me so I'll have to take some time to see what gives on CO CC, if anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COMJNUT Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Yes, I know, I've been slacking a bit on Comanche stuff, been a little busy at work. Trying to get something together for Friday the 15th. The most difficult part is getting a location for 25ish people with their vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete, do you have plans to be somewhere in particular when you arrive or shortly thereafter? You mentioned Estes Park. A M&G seems difficult for a Friday given people's work schedules, various locations and, traffic sucks big time Friday late day all up and down the Front Range. Saturday or Sunday seems easier to pull off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 30, 2018 Author Share Posted May 30, 2018 we arrive on friday, though I'm not entirely certain when. saturday/sunday would probably work better anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COMJNUT Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I was thinking Friday late evening after 6pm till around 10pm, eat around 7pm. I have my son's birthday party on Saturday. I am organizing a car show for my work right now that happens on Sunday till around 3pm. Yes a group of Comanche's can show up at the car show, but some folks do not like setting foot on church property and I would like to be respectful of that. I don't know if any within the group feels that way at this time, but I have heard of it in some circles of friends that I have.

Pete M Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 I've made my reservation for the rental van. same price as a car with unlimited miles was just too good to pass up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellaheep Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Hey Scott, I don't do facebook - it's the devil - especially for cops..... So I can't post/contribute in the thread there. Looks like I should be able to attend this. I'm happy to bring food stuffs but it'd be easier if you could just tell me what I can bring since I won't be able to coordinate on FB. We have plans for my folks to be down to see us for Father's day. Maybe my pops and I will stop by for the car show! I wish I could have helped you out with your travel needs Pete! My folks summer in Estes Park but won't be there until after you are - I think. Never know with them, but they're driving from Florida and stopping to see family in Nebraska. I believe their plan is to come to us for Father's day before heading back up to Estes. If I had a working MJ I'd have let you use it! Are we really expecting 25 or so MJ peeps at this thing? That's pretty cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellaheep Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Also, if anyone has parts needs and will be going to this event, hit me up - I'll see if I have it. I'm still trying to get stuff out of storage and into the hands of people that can use the stuff. My storage unit isn't far from Castle Rock.........

yellaheep Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Ok, so I checked out the map for the location....... "My Friends and I Automotive"....... is this a house with storage containers and several vehicles on a few acres off the beaten path south of C-Rock?

I completely understand about the book of faces, the group thing is the only reason that I use it. I would like to see a couple of MJ's at the show. We are at 12 now and 3 that don't do the book of faces thing that have contacted me directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
