Hope you can make it up, that would be great!

If I don't have out of town company that Friday I would love to come meet you in Woodland Park. I just live west of WP. Tell me time and place on the 16th and I will try and come.

I'm sure looking forward to your visit and getting to meet you! You'll love "Nuts & Bolts Needleworks" quilt shop here AND of course, there are some terrific places to eat up here! :thumbup:

Anyone else want to join in on the fun?
Is 11:00 or noon good for everyone? We could meet at the Nuts and Bolts Shop? and after that we could go for lunch? Or eat first. I'm open for time and suggestions.

Quiltgranny - can you suggest a place to eat? Or is there a better place to meet?

Grandma's Kitchen has some of the best food in town, can make room for large groups and treats us like gold. They serve a variety of breakfast items as well as lunch, too. Another option is the Ute Inn (the dining side). They have some really awesome menu items ranging from breakfast all day to the best Philly Beef Steak sandwich I've ever had. They serve crab, too. They tend to be less crowded, too. The Circle H Smokehouse has the best BBQ'd everything, but only serves breakfast til 11:15. They have great service, too. There's also the Hungry Bear, IF you can find a parking spot. Parking isn't so much an issue at Grandma's, pulblic parking is behind the Ute and sometimes is across the street at the Smokehouse if you didn't there ahead of the lunch crowd. Let's take a vote.

Meeting at 11:00 to eat before going to Nuts makes the most sense. That way, we're getting served before the crowds come and don't have to shop at Nuts on an empty stomach.

:lol:

The Smokehouse is located just across the street from Nuts. They might even let us park in the Nuts lot first, then we could just walk over to the Smokehouse eat and walk back to Nuts. The staff at the Smokehouse treat us like gold, too. They wouldn't mind if we lingered as long as we wanted to, either. They have a wonderful salad bar, too - something lacking in the other places I mentioned. They even serve BBQ Buffalo if you're in the mood. Mighty good say my DH.

Those are my thoughts, what do the rest of your girls think?
