Hess, I have a pretty allergy-free room waiting for you. Freshly remodeled, and no animals have been let up there, no feathers, and so forth. We can pick up there too. I WILL need to know if you are coming, so I can work on getting rid of construction dust on the bare wood floor and get it aired out from having done that, well before you come. Get any ride you can! Get as far as Jande's and bring her too!

A note to people who want to come: it isn't about "IF" you can come. It is, "I am coming," and then figure out HOW. See?
