Well, let's see...got the groceries...and my car would not start again in Costco...got towed back to Long Beach...

We'll have plenty to eat..not to worry..although I have not heard from my fishmonger yet about the salmon...but please to bring Robinia grapes, BB anything overtaking your garden, even Zuccini, which I have a great recipe for that includes garlic and parmesen cheese...anyone who has any harvest they would like to bring..apples, I have Asian pears which should be ripe, and cranberries and huckleberries...

I think I enjoy the meals as much as the singing..

Oh, my roommate is going to do the cleaning, but she is scheduled to work at 2 which means she has to leave at 1:30. No one has to leave early..stay as long as it is light...but we might have to shove you around. What we will do is have a nice brunch, clear everything out of the kitchen..I will hustle perishables away for a food bank..we will set out leftovers and sandwich makings for lunch, and let her have the kitchen for final cleanup..

We still don't expect people to have to do chores at the end, other than clean up after breakfast and sweep out cabins. My roommate will do the kitchen, bathroom and floor of main cabin.

There is nothing worse than knowing you have to drive 4 hours and hear a plea for volunteers, so don't worry. mg
