I will, unfortunately, be unable to attend as our daughter and SIL are having an open house at their new home on that day.  Have fun everyone!

I learned that I need to work this weekend.  Hopefully the volume will be light and I will be able to make it in the afternoon.  Sounds like a perfect day to fly!
