Diana
Final Approach
Who would like to take over this fun job? I won't be doing it next year, so someone else needs to take care of it. Y'all fight for it amongst yourselves.
Well, I should have mentioned that I made reservations for Friday dinner and for Saturday dinner and for Sunday Brunch. By having these reservations made, Gaston's will be able to keep us all together in the same section, they will have a better idea of how much food to have and they plan on staffing for us accordingly. Kevin has our numbers for dinner on Saturday night, but we had over 65 people eat there and we filled up Section A plus two tables on the balcony overlooking Section A. Personally, I don't care where people eat, but it makes it a better experience for all concerned if Gaston's can plan accordingly for these three meals. And those of us eating in the restaurant will get better service and will be able to sit together.Well some of us didn't even do the restaurant for dinner this year. Perhaps we want to do it as a cookout?

Yes, it would be good to be able to include Friday night also. One problem is...not everyone used the web site and some people didn't change their numbers when they couldn't make it in.Sounds like yet another good use for the website.
Sounds good Dave. Somebody else needs to do it. I am definitely not doing it anymore.Its a bit early to commit for me but put me on the list to accept the job Diana - if no one else snaps it up ask me again....late winter?

They are neat, aren't they. And I know what you mean about getting a chance to get to know people better this way. Besides it was cooler and less humid in the restaurant.Sitting together was fun on Friday night. I think it was also fun to sit with Josh and Susan Saturday night. What a neat couple they are....sitting in small groups allows us to get to know people better. I liked that.
Does that mean that you will volunteer if Dave can't do it?but I still really enjoy the dinners and hope that they continue.
I asked where the coffee can for donations was located but no one seemed to know.OBTW, to whom all do I owe the thanks for the Flightline Fine Dine? And are donations being accepted?

And Mike, this would not be a good time to call me a "Princess" again. Dang, Kim, I wish we had that special smilie here that you have on your purple board.
Many of us handled it by donating foodstuffs. (I started to list off some, but realized that I wasn't coming close to incorporating everybody, and erased it).I asked where the coffee can for donations was located but no one seemed to know.
You read my mind.Which one???? The one with the whip???? B)
You read my mind.
This is just one last reminder. I realize that I'm mostly talking to myself here (not an usual thing for me ), but someone else needs to eventually step up to do it for next year if y'all want things to go fairly smoothly with the restaurant for the large group meals.Sounds good Dave. Somebody else needs to do it. I am definitely not doing it anymore.
Thank you Dave.I will do it Diana.
Thank you Spike.If I can't come, I will nominate Spike.
That should cover it for now. I'll PM you for the rest of the story.What other tasks do you need help with Diana?

And that's all I have to say about that.
Moi? I don't remember that unless it was a lame lead balloon joke when you went inside Friday night. I remember saying everybody wanted to be near your loveliness.They are neat, aren't they.
