He sort of surprised me with the trip - so I didn't really have time to make a lot of plans. It was in June - so it was off to Butchart Gardens for us (I adore gardens that I don't have to weed). We didn't take a car - we took the Victoria Clipper (high speed catamaran) from Seattle - which was quite lovely.Betty Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16446092401692468002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-30051292092170661772010-04-11T10:18:24.346-07:002010-04-11T10:18:24.346-07:00I've had tea at the Empress.

(Not as much as I love the idea of a pilgrimage to England and Holland, but that would be tough to pull off during the second week of school).<br /><br />At the very least, elevensies at The Crumpet Shop in Seattle for me(and whoever????)- or, if I can swing it, a trip to Victoria BC for tea at the Empress - which I've wanted to do since I first went to Victoria as a teenager.Betty Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16446092401692468002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-17687326755587202102010-04-10T15:36:41.578-07:002010-04-10T15:36:41.578-07:00At the very least, can we get some regional get-to...At the very least, can we get some regional get-togethers going? Anyone in the upper left-hand corner of the US interested? I'll drive a long way to have tea with a fellow Betty.<br /><br />(And if that doesn't work, I'm just going to have to get a ticket to the Pacific Northwest and inflict myself -- uh, I mean <i>visit</i> the Founding Bettys.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-931981138747432610.post-20060300974692648332010-04-10T10:52:19.636-07:002010-04-10T10:52:19.636-07:00Barbara here

If we are not in funds, we will be sitting around the kitchen table. Either way, the works of LaNeels will be discussed. Hmmm, not too sure what we will be wearing as I do not own a jersey dress.Barb in Marylandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374278685536530837noreply@blogger.com
