Can anyone confirmthat there is a Wendy's in the shopping centre and it's one that has the dining room open til 10pm?

Yep...
Wendy's Old Fashion Hamburgers
(704) 341-3667
7712 Rea Rd
Charlotte, NC 28277

The nice lady on the phone said the dining room's open 'til 11 on weekdays.

Now we're finishing this deal, and then maybe we'll come back for those morons who got themselves caught. You can't change that by getting all... bendy...

It's hard to tell without a map of everything, or a mall website, but I'm guessing, since the theatre is 7824 Rea Road, then anything with an address on the 7800 block ending with an even number would be adjacent to the theatre. The shopping senter might occupy more than just the 7800's, but for sure, those would be a good bet. That would include everything listed except Firebirds and Wendy's. But because they're on the next block, they may also be within walking distance. After the lunch rush, I could call Wendy's again...

I think I still vote for Qdoras, just because I don't like fast food, but if we decide to meet at Wendy's because it's open later, than I can always hop over to Qdoras and get food and then catch up with everyone at Wendy's. No biggie.

And that reminds me, Standp: this is how bad my high school education was. They decided to paint the school crest over the door of the cafeteria to inspire school spirit or some such nonsense. It had 3 words on it, one of them was "education". But when the sign was painted, it read "edumacation" (no lie. It was still there 2 yrs ago.)

Ooops. It's probably my fault. I probably dyslexic'd the word like I did poor flechette's name and got everyone else spelling it wrong.

Last weekend it took us 1hr 15 min on I85 to reach Concord Mills, then we took the next exit (48?) onto I485 and it was about 25 min to the theatre.

Anyone know if there is a shorter/faster route than that?

flechette, when you got off 485, did you head north or south on Rea Road? And was it 25 minutes when you got off of 485 onto Rea or was it 25 mins when you got onto I485?

Travel time once on I485 to the shopping centre was 20-25 minutes. Stonecrest Shopping Centre is blantantly obvious once you exit off I485 - like less than 1 block - but I don't remember the North/South part will ask hubby tonight if he remembers -

It looks to a big centre, the movie complex is in the far back right area.

I meant what I said earlier - if you all want to go for Qdoba's - pls do! The only one who HAS to find me is Jadehand- if Qdoba's closes w/out us making it then he knows to check Wendy's! heh and I definitely prefer Q's to W's anyway -

Jadehand - I'll PM you next week w/ likely descriptions and my cell # just in case..

thanks, flechette, that's what I really needed to know. I'm coming from the south 77 to I485, so I really wanted to know how far it was from 485 and which way to turn, but if it's that close I'm sure I'll figure it out in no time.

Here's a question for everyone: what will you be wearing? Will people be dressing up?
I was just planning on wearing my "Where are you hiding, little girl?" River shirt (check out fray's cafepress shop, cute stuff!!) but if everyone's going to be decked out, I could throw a Kaylee costume together. All I need are a pair of kaylee-alls. And a teddy bear patch.

Clothing depends on whether or not UPS has lost my cafepress order - tracking hasn't been updated since Monday - still in transit....

Hopefully I'll have Wiley's Horse Rustler T, Tim -a Hero of Canton T and not sure about my friend yet -
