Dear Sister Alicia
We will be arriving in Boston, picking up a hire car
& driving to Rock Harbor on Cape Cod on Friday 16 May 2014 rather than on
Thursday as previously arranged as Philip needs to work that day. We should
arrive in Rock Harbor at about 18h30 – 19h00.
In the party staying at the house that you have
arranged for us to let us will be my partner Philip Goodyer, Chris & Heather
Pickford – all of whom you met last year – and Lyn Barnett from Atlanta.
All five of us will be driving up to Québec City on
Thursday 22 May in time for their Ringing Weekend starting on Friday 23 May.
While on Cape Cod we will participate fully in all
the ringing as we did last year.
At Ring-Around-Charleston last weekend I mentioned
to Danielle Morse from Boston that we would be there and I invited her to sound
out any Boston ringers who may like to come out to Orleans for a ringing day – on
Saturday 17 May as I imagine that would suit them better rather than Sunday or
a week night.
Should some of the Boston ringers like to come out
to Rock Harbor it would considerably enhance the ringing opportunities for the
local team.
I would be happy to host a post-ringing, late-afternoon
BBQ at the beautiful house overlooking the marsh for all the local Orleans ringers
as well as any Boston ringers who may come out for the day.
Best Wishes
Douglas
