Hmph, somewhere in the last 2 days I've developed a nasty throat thingie...first time I've been sick in ages and ages; can't really remember when!

Julie and Steph, you know I've got hugs for you (and I should be non-contagious by Saturday next, whatever this is)...

Glenda and Annie, we're a rolling party, we are -- always glad to see each other and help each other -- makes me feel great knowing y'all are out there (and that goes for EVERYONE in our wee group).

Patio, windows! Mais, bien sur! Sounds great, all we have to do is figure where. Only thing that comes to mind is that Glo place in the Selkirk development, facing out over the upper Inner Harbour/Gorge Waterway, or perhaps Spinnakers?

Cedar Hill Golf course lounge has a patio ... also lots of windows, plus a staff that lets me tweak the menu. I've had several of their sandwiches and wraps, breadless and tortillaless and John often has their steak san with no bread ... no problem with subbing salad for fries. Also, bunless burgers don't faze them. The food is generous and the prices are reasonable.

hope you're all feeling better soon. Warm days and sunshine must be just around the corner...

Cedar Hill Golf Course sounds like a good option to me.

Thanks Julie .... I'm feeling a lot better, not coughing a lot anymore but it's taking forever to get my strength back! They tell me to expect it to take 3 months or more before I'm back to normal!! All I want is to be able to walk around the golf course ... renting a riding cart gets expensive

Coughing less today, shoulder is slowly getting better too. Just takes FOREVER!!!! I can almost get my hand above my head, but not behind my back yet. Been 4 months.....

Take it slow Glenda - overdoing it will set you back. Oh, you already know that!

My friend in the states with the stents is still pretty weak but perked up when I said "see you in three weeks" (evil grin!)

Never been to Cedar Hill (well, seen it from the outside, methinks). Sounds good. Cautious progress report on the sinus/coughing thing, though luckily I'm otherwise ok (no fever or weakness).

Looking forward to that group hug.

Good show! Noon at Cedar Hill Golf Course, upstairs in the lounge, table for 5 (unless Janet can make it, then it'll be a table for 6)! If it's a nice day, we can move outside once we're all there. We were there for lunch today - I had the teriyaki chicken wrap with cheese, sauteed pineapple salsa, tomatoes & lettuce, wrapless and tortilla-chip-less. Very tasty and for $9.95, generous enough that I had to bring some home!

I asked about Saturdays and they said that some Saturdays are busy while others are quiet so, to be on the safe side, I'll make a reservation. I'll use my own name so I don't have to explain why Glenda is making a reservation under the name "Elsie" See you all Saturday!

Oh darn! Maybe next month Janet? We keep hoping!!! Do you have your schedule far enough ahead that you could let us know when you'll be free and we could try to plan around that??

Hugs,
