For those who did not yet get an oppurtunity or sould like to go again to see the newly-refurbished Queen of Surrey....
I am planning on doing a cruise on her on July 20th on the 4:10 sailing out of Horseshoe Bay. The plan is to meet Curtis (PR Ferries Teen 16) on this sailing. He'd like to meet a few more of us members while he's on his way back to Powell River. He's informed me that he will be on this sailing.
All are welcome to attend, I will be assembling a list of who is planning to attend as has been done with other trips.

I'd be interested. I'll see what I can do to get out of another day of work. No guarentees though.

I would love to come, but I have to be at the Airport at 1:00 and the flight leaves at approx 5:00pm
Sorry guys, but family (and England) come first.

You would pass up a chance to eat chicken fingers and look at new carpeting on the Queen of Surrey just to go to ENGLAND? Hoo, boy, Quinsam Teen, I just can't figure you out. ;D

I'll try and make it, but I will most likely be working that day. If it were on the weekend I'd be able to go.

I finally found a computer in a Best Western in Nelson BC.
So in response to this I'm probably going to be aboard a day early so this could change things a bit i'm not sure though what sailing so I could not join or some of you guys could change your plan

Darn! Thursday is both another 10-hour work day ... and Jeannie's birthday. I might be able to skip the work, but I'd better not leave Jeannie uncelebrated, or she'll set the dogs on me. Surrey has been a good friend the last couple of years, taking us on our daytrips to Gambier and Keats via Langdale. I wouldn't recognize her topside improvements, though, 'cause we've always travelled in the dog pen:  Have a fine time, fellas, and continue setting cruise dates. One time, I'd sure like to meet the nice people that hang out here. |

It's hard to say if I'll make it now...
My boss needs me to go to a house in Furrey Creek that morning to get it ready for next week. So hopefully it won't take all day...

Well, hopefull you can still make it then!
I was lucky, as the boss sent me down to do that job in Furry Creek today instead. So that leaves tomorrow free for me..finally...
So I guess we'll meet up at the ticket booths around 3:30ish?
