need some specifics

Michael, don't worry. Sounds like you've never been to Bill's. He lives at the back of a little "neighborhood" and has a big shop (or 3) with plenty of room to park multiple trailers/vehicles, etc. I am not sure where the "new" host hotel is...but there's a Shell station right on the strip. Bill's place is about 60 seconds up the hill and behind that gas station.

No need for permission, I wouldn't think. Just stay "out of the way." You know?

The cruise will probably leave around noon from the host hotel on Friday. You'll get directions at the hotel - I'd say it's kind of like "checking in" before the event. Just be at the hotel that morning and you won't be able to miss it.

Hopefully I'm not stepping on Bill's toes here!
