I've just realized that there's a good chance I won't be around in July. So... I propose we do the BBQ in August or thereafter. Venue to still be decided. Thanks, Tim.

Either can probably work for me. Unfortunately as much as I'd love to host, I'm currently at my parents house which (even if they're cool with it) is a 90+min drive from Worcester. I will be happy to show up where ever it does end up being hosted. Logan On Wed, Jun 21, 2017 at 9:47 PM, Tim Keller <turbofx(a)gmail.com> wrote: > First question is which month?
