Judy, I have your quilted toiletry bag and Cathy, I have your Italy ideas book. But, I will be in Trani, Italy May 3, so hopefully I can give you those during our June meeting.

I was thinking the same….Mary and Sterling, you’re stuck with us! It will be so nice to see you both!
Jean, have a lovely, lovely trip…the book is yours to keep or to share.

I just checked back here and delighted so many of us can be there! Jean - pass that bag on to someone else and have a great trip! See everyone else on Saturday. Pam I am trying to decide on one of Mark’s 2027 trips since he won’t be going back to the Shetlands again.
See everyone Saturday

Oh, that would be worth a road trip out there, Pam! :-) Well, that and the red velvet cupcake!

Har-de-har-har, Mardee! I've been watching too many YouTube videos made by pilots - going thru the airport, doing the walk around of the plane, the Lufthansa guy always stops to shine his shoes....so I was thinking a YouTube video of me walking in to Fred Meyer, inspecting the strawberries to find a box that does not have moldy ones on the bottom, etc, hahaha! Snoozefest!

Judy - I've got dibs on 2 of Mark's for 2027 - the garden tours.

Pam, those garden tours made me stop and seriously consider it, but 2027 seems so far away to book a reservation. I also paused because the roses wouldn’t be blooming. How much ahead do his tours fill up, i.e. how much pondering time do I probably have?

I missed you all by one week for the April meeting when I drove from Washington to Massachusetts, chased by the weather the whole way. I did stop at Woops for a dozen macarons. OMG! I’m so jealous of those of you in the Spokane/Coeur d’Alene area. Perhaps the timing of my return trip will coincide with the next meet up.

Trotter, we'd love to have you! OR if you are passing thru, let us know and we will at least stand on the side of the Interstate with signs welcoming you to Idaho, hahaha!

OR, seriously, if I'm not traveling I'd meet you any time for coffee/macaron/etc, lol. I'm glad you found Woops...the gals in there are so nice and their baked goods are wonderful.

Jean, they do not look like either are full yet. The difficult thing is that he wants his deposit in January of the year ahead. Right now you can put "dibs"on a 2027 tour with no $$ obligation but would have to do the deposit after the first of the year.

Darn it! I will NOT be able to make it this Saturday, so sorry to miss Mary and Sterling ( waves hello) and Cathy and her pictures! (And of course, all the rest of you!)
Boo- but I did have a great time last month. Maybe in June!

Have fun!
