The venue has been working well for us. Good food, we can stay all we want, and not noisy. As before, we’ll get a table off to the side and eat off the menu. The weather forecast, the Weather Underground one, guesses some clouds Saturday morning, then partly cloudy the rest of the weekend Highs around 60. Great for a Fly0out..
