Drive to Vegas and back instead of flying; return car at LAX Oct 3

Browse Source 
One-way SFO->LAS drop was too expensive, so the rental runs
Sep 19-Oct 3 and everyone departs from LAX. Also record KT & VT
arriving SFO at 1 PM on Sep 19.

*Candidate menu of sights. No day plan yet (Sep 30–Oct 3) — pick from here to build one.*
> **No car in Vegas:** the rental is dropped at LAX on Sep 30 before flying in. Getting around the Strip is walkable + rideshare/monorail, but **any day trip (Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, etc.) needs a tour or a separate Vegas rental** — plan that ahead.
> **Car in Vegas:** driving in from LA Sep 30 and back Oct 3, so the rental is available for day trips (Hoover Dam, Red Rock, Valley of Fire). Budget ~$20–30/night Strip hotel parking.
