Yes please. I bumped it up a bit, due to the border. I'm hoping to get the bunch to Lillooet in time for dinner.

We have a sub total for the dinner at Leland.....90 so far. Chicken dinner is the winner.
If you have not made your choice known by mid week you'll be eating a day old sub at the Overwaite.

I'm afraid we have to head back to the island on the 21st, with such
a late decision to attend, neither my wife nor I can get the Monday off work. I see there's a cruise to Nakusp after Revelstoke... As for the meeting at Timmies in Chilliwack, which one is it exactly? Google maps shows a few on Vedder. |
