Marc,
I am disappointed that you can't make it but understand the travel constraints. Don't worry about the late cancellation, this affair is pretty free wheeling. Mostly we will miss your voice.
Another time,

Crusty bread will be welcome, Charlie along with any pre-lobster snacks. I will put out some crackers and cheese with grapes. Fresh strawberries or blueberries would be nice. Whatever strikes your fancy. BUT NO SALSA!

Note to dog owners - the beasties are welcome. My new fence has added a huge area to the yard. The cats have agreed to tolerate a few canines for a day in exchange for fresh lobster..
