What about Bill and Sandra and BFC this year??

BFC is still unsure cause of possible conflict - hopefully will know soon and they can make it.

I've sent e-mail to Bill but no response

[mra]

I phoned Bill & Sandy this evening ....have had a few health issues with their eyes, but are now on the mend. Bill to confirm with me in the next few days


Also sounds like Charles & Meagan Harris-Halpenny & daughter are attending ....

Bill & Sandy McKee...confirmed

As of 4pm this afternoon (Sat. Sept 9), our total seems to be 40 people. Lynda & I have been really putting out the information. Hope we can a few more "Yes" by Thursday.

Still have not heard anything from BFC, Bob & Heather (they were waiting to see if Heather's new schedule allowed)

[bryan]

I'll text Bob. Last update was that they were hoping to be able to drive down Saturday and leave early Sunday. Stay tuned.

[mra]

If I don't hear anything from BFC, I'll phone them tomorrow evening !!

[bryan]

Talked to Bob Brooks yesterday. There is just one thing that may prevent them from going and he's working to get that sorted out. Should hear from him soon.

[mra]

Linda sold more tickets last night...exact number not known, but we are over 40 people !

Ruth called us tonight. Unfortunately, we're still caught between a rock and a hard spot. If, and there's a capital "I" on the word "IF", things open up, we'll try to get there. It's a real bummer. This will be the first fiesta that we've missed. Have a great one.

BFC ...it was great talking with you & Gaye. I hope you will be able to make it, even if it is just for the Saturday.!
