Luckily it's a direct flight from Boston to Denver then to N. Platte, same in reverse.
Sounds like just you and me on the flight to N. Platte Saturday night right now, unless @thscott05 and @Wonger decide not to drive. Us plus @Muchmore on the flight back to Denver Wednesday morning. I do want to play Sunday morning before we head to GrayBull. I don't expect there's much to do in N. Platte to kill time.
For sure on Sun morning. Love the pre-event rounds. They are a must.
Hmmmm, you may somehow find your way onto the no fly list and have to make alternate travel arrangements
Hmmmm, same applies to you. See above.
Yep all in for the morning pre-event round. Love these.
I don’t believe this happened with GrayBull last year because they had the van ride from Denver.
Looks like we will have a few options for golf in N. Platte area. When we get closer we can decide on course.
Looks like driving is going to be the way to go for me. About 9.5 hours and will break it up on the way down.
Will save upwards of $500 which can only be spent at one place. You all know where that is.
My tentative plan will be to arrive Saturday. I can grab folks from the airport.

Will you be leaving NP on Tuesday or Wednesday?
Plan to leave on Wednesday unless the littles stage a coup and the emergency recall gets invoked
I don’t want to miss after event time!

Vacation time submitted and approved!
Started to scope out hotels for Saturday and Tuesday nights.
@Wonger @thscott05 How big are your vehicles? I'd love not to get a rental, but will gladly pay for gas if you're willing to drive us around N. Platte.

I’ve got a Chevy Equinox so not the biggest but I can certainly help pick up a couple guys if needed.
I have a Toyota Highlander so between myself and @thscott05 I don’t see any reason for another rental.
From a lodging standpoint, I am easy. If I have a preference I try to stay at Marriott properties for the rewards, but they can be pricier then others places, especially when you are not in major metro areas. So, basically wherever works for me. Trust me, I have stayed at and survived some less than stellar properties
Any hotel works for me... just let me know what you come up w/ and I will book room there for those nights as well.I have a Toyota Highlander so between myself and @thscott05 I don’t see any reason for another rental.

I will gladly hop in w/ someone if there is room or I can grab a rental if not.
Plenty of room!
I have officially booked my first hotel room and began fully planning out my trip. This is getting real!
Nice... what hotel??
Nothing crazy. Just a Holiday Inn Express in Guthrie, Oklahoma for June 5. Hoping to get to play Karsten Creek in Stillwater on June 6 but they still haven’t announced their re-opening so TBD on that.
Ahh... OK. I thought you meant in Nebraska.
Anyone check out hotels in N. Platte yet? @Wonger @Muchmore @Mikey D @thscott05 Looks like plenty available for Sat & Tues nights. Just depends on how fancy y'all are. I will start looking at some ideas for Sun morning pre-event round as well.
Hotels? You fancy! I had my filter set to motels
Yeah I was also looking at hotels in North Platte for the 6 and 7 but haven’t booked anything. I wanna try to play Wild Horse because it’s supposed to be awesome.
