Take care

Well, folks.... I had 2 more cancellations.... so, do we cancel the brunch? It seems that the timeframe is inconvenient for many and since the numbers are dwindling, please note here your thoughts on cancelling it and rescheduling for the spring.

Erin and Norma will not be able to join. Current list of attendees:

Since my gall bladder op (will be the near that date - final date not set) ... I would not mine of the date is moved forward a week or 2)

[Lynn Mc]

I wish I could attend but life speaks!!!  Maybe next time.

[Lizard]

I think it would be better for us if the date was moved too, but only if other people are in agreement.  perhaps you can take a poll of a good date. 
Decisions, Decisions!
Liz

[krbonner]

My calendar is pretty open, so I would be happy either sticking with the date or moving if that's better for more people.

Katie

[KMacDonald]

hi Phyl, It's O.K. with us if you want to cancel the October date.  It's more fun if everyone can come.  If you do move the date, we will be away from Oct. 29th to Nov.5th.  Maybe you should look for a spring date because some people may not want to drive that far during the winter months with unexpected weather. People have been traveling from Conn. New Hampshire, and the western part of the state just to have brunch.  Thanks for taking a vote!  Let's try to include as many people as possible......Kathy and Bob Mac
