Just wondering what you guys do for Vette parking security during these events? Being at 2 different hotels, I guess it is harder to cordon off a section just for the Vettes.

 We heard a rumor you were gonna volunteer to sleep in the parking lot of at least one of the hotels as a guard.  So we weren't too worried about it. Big%20smile

The Holiday Inn has agree to section off parking for the folks that are staying there.  No extra security, just our own area to park.  We didn't have extra security in Pigeon Forge, and I don't suspect we'll need it for Carson City NV.

I'll be bringing my portable electric fence. 6 god-zillion volts. But only one nano-amp. Makes a big spark but doesn't leave any marks.
Then we have the six pit bulls that are light sleepers.

Seriously, I won't lose any sleep over it.
A pack of sharks will do better than one lonely one.
Any one else staying at the lower-priced place?

Gunslinger, that is my favorite for home and shark defense.  Does anyone know if Nevada is a reciprocal state for Oklahoma's Concealed Carry?

They might screw with me but they better stay away from Momma!  She's a much better shot than I amEvil%20Smile

I would think if you had a license to carry a concealed weapon and were passin' through a different state it would still be legal.  I carry a little S&W 38 DS.  Makes a great concealed weapon for a lady.  Of course it's loaded with hollow points.  If I caught someone messin' with my C3, they might not be messin' with it for very long.  My son & I practice shootin' at the gun range a lot....Thumbs%20Up
