Okay, breakfast on Sunday. Does 9AM sound good?

For Breakfast on Sunday, I recommend The Elbow Room Cafe  
560 Davie (near Seymour)-- 2 blocks east of Howe  
Vancouver, BC  
V6B 2G4  
(604) 685-3628

**Barbarian** hon…thanks SO much for all your help throughout this whole thing. I look forward to meeting you Sunday. I will email you my cell phone number just in case you need it.

🙂  
All of you who bailed? You are going to miss a really REALLY good time. Plus, you won’t get to meet me. You’ll be sorry when I beat Bush and become President. You missed the chance to be able to say you knew me when.

☹_ **rob** mumbles something about money being the root of all evil…_  
I really, really wanted to come, Cheri…sorry, again.

I hadn’t heard anything about it, yet, so I thought I’d ask; did everyone have a blast? Dagnabbit…I so wanted to be there. _sigh_

And I spent time waiting, and waiting, and waiting by the phone for you to call \<snif\>.

I hope you enjoyed Vancouver!

**Barbarian**

If you sent me an email with your phone number, I didn’t get it. Sorry! We were expecting you at breakfast, but knew it might not work out, so weren’t surprised when you didn’t come.

More on the actual events later.

It is with a humble, and contrite, heart that I finally respond to this thread.

Scotti: WONDERFUL weekend! Spouse and I enjoyed ourselves immensely – and wish to apologize for being such party-poopers. But, as spouse says, “our combined ages are 85, so we’re not as young as we used to be”. Still, it was GREAT meeting and getting to know you.

Amarinth: We’re looking forward to seeing you again – maybe at a dopefest closer to home.

RJK: A HUGE thank you for being our tour guide. Granville Island was a lot of fun – we’re going to have to explore it further next time we’re up. Spouse especially enjoyed meeting you, he seems to think you both have a lot in common.

Finally, to all you dopers who couldn’t/didn’t make it:

NYAH, NYAH, NYAH, NYAH! You missed a GREAT time!!!
