Cottage Book Club Retreat

Ladies, this Saturday July 9th is book club at the cottage. You are all welcome to arrive for sun and dock therapy anytime you want on Saturday. I will be up there around 10:00am. The day goes as follows, sun, swim and day drinking. I'll have a bunch of snacks feel free to bring whatever you like. We have a new blow up island so let's hope the dry hot weather continues and we'll float the day away.  Dinner is provided by me and that's when book talk starts.

All partners and kids are invited to join us on Sunday, please tell your families to come when they like to make the most of the day, we will bbq and have snacks so that everyone is happy.

There are 5 queen sized beds so lots of space for us all to sleep, I will have made the beds with fresh sheets, bring a pillow if you're particular, otherwise we are all covered.  At night and if the day is windy it can be cold so be sure to pack a sweater and pants for nightfall. We will continue our discussion by the fire.

Please let me know if your coming and if you're family is coming Sunday so I have an idea of numbers.

I think by now you all know where it is I'll send an email with the directions so as to not invite the world to see the ladies of book club dockside!

Looking forward to it Laura! I will need a ride up. Who's got space in their car?I can meet anywhere for pick up. Peter and Roberto will be coming on Sunday - will check Ricky's schedule he may be working. We can bring something for Sunday's Bbq.

So excited about this year's version and really looking forward to the new version of the island. I'm planning to leave the city around noon on Saturday. I'm driving Marney and I can drive you too Christine. I will finalize the time later this week.
