[Gregory Reighard]

Greg, the shuttle has a winter schedule and yes you can return on the 16th or later.  I reserved as such.

Some of us are flying into Seattle at probably less than half the airfare to Wenatchee and renting a car (still being less in total than the fare to Wenatchee). That cost savings incrases even more if some of us carpool from Seattle to Wenatchee and back. Now, coordinating travel plans is not something Stefano should be tasked with facilitating, we can certainly use this email list for such official NC140 business (right, Jon?)……

Remember, more passengers makes for easier work pushing the rental car through that early snowfall on Stevens Pass when you risk not getting tire chains……. :-)
