I'd like to get on Ken's calendar before year-end, thinking we might get ahead of any increase in on-site coat. The reservation requires 20% within 30 days of committing, for four of us on two-week basis that's $1,000.? When we commit I can get a check to Ken to secure our reservation.? I'd prefer to receive your portion ($250) by December 31.? The remainder will be due to Ken either May 23 or June 20 depending on which date option we choose.? Again, I can provide the required $4,000 to Ken and receive your share ($1,000) about the same date. If you need to cancel after we place our deposit, I think it would be refunded. However, it affects the total paid by the remainder of the group.
?
We'll be eight months out when we meet this month.? I'm keeping an eye on flights and see some pretty good prices into Boston MA from Portland OR.? Cars are better than last time!
?
It's beginning to feel real again!? My big challenge is finding coverage for Barbara for this long a time.? An early decision to nail down our dates will help me.
I'm hoping all four of us will commit!
