I am in for dinner. And thanks, Nora, for your ever-valuable intel.

Weather: highs in the low 90s, lows around 70. It will be HUMID. Not supposed to rain, but that changes quickly. And an umbrella makes a good parasol, especially if you are going on the cemetery tour. Comfy walking shoes, natch. My party will not be fancy - I will probably wear a cute, casual dress and I guarantee there will be shorts and flip flops worn. Woo and hoo, people.

I think I have it marked on the spreadsheet, but I will not be doing Sunday dinner.

You were a maybe, Dana, but I changed it to "no."

I think I just need to know Maria and Daisy's RSVPs and then I can get on the stick and make a reservation.

Whoops. Thanks.

I need to change my flight to tomorrow. In process of changing now. Sorry to miss Avenue Pub tonight! I will likely be catching a super early morning fight with a stop that gets me into NOLA in mid-afternoon.

Bummer, Nanita! Maybe we can do that another time during the weekend.

Southwest is not making this easy, as neither the app or website is allowing me to change (lets me choose change, choose payment method, gets me all the way to the end, then says flight no longer available, GRRRRR. On hold now.).

ETA: all done. On early morning flight with one stop (though I don't have to change planes, so hopefully can sleep right through!), getting in around 2.

Definitely want to try to get to the Pub this weekend!

Nanita, what time is the tour you booked us for on Monday? I may be able to swing us a private one.

10 AM. And I don't think I can get refunds if a private one is through another provider?
