Meet at Harrahs- What time? (about a 90min drive for Iowa guys) Shoot the Shit!
Eat lunch at Harrahs
Cruising- Need to have a little bit of a route decided (cruise to a lake or something to take pics)
Some more driving
Head back to Iowa around 3 or 4

I would like to have the plans finalized by Mid January!

You would be correct sir!

I assume we'll be meeting at one point on the western side of town? I know you and I are the "east side" of town but it wouldn't make sense for the WDSM guys if there are any to drive backwards.

Depending on a few things I'm going to try and get Jason to get his '66 on the cruise with us.

Might as well meet at Jordan Creek like last time, east to hop on I80 from there.

Ok so what I have read so far is May 16, sat @ 12ish meet at Harrahs for buffet, then cruise. Heres mu suggestion
Driving Directions from Lake Manawa, IA to Harrah's Casino Hotel, 1 Harrahs Blvd, Council Bluffs, IA[11448-12199]+Wabash+Ave:Council+Bluffs:IA:51503:US:41.1866:-95.77715:street:pottawattamie+County:1/m:::::0:::::/io:1:::::f:EN:M:/e

However while on hwy 275 go to highway 92 turn right and go to valley view drive and go left to some shopping centers(strip malls) where we can end it or go from there. The cruise would be about 2 hours and however long the buffet takes?? just an idea but is a real nice cruise trust me I have done it several times as my parents live out by Glenwood.
