So, this weekend coming up is my bday weekend. Friend and I were going to go to the mountains and have lunch at the lodge at Shenandoah National Park. We were going to go on to the Sharp Shopper store so I could get some things for Thanksgiving, but it is really going to be very cold that day with the wind..probably frigid..not a day to go to the mountains for sure. I think I might have him come down on Sat. and we can go to a local place here for brunch. That won't cost as much as dinner. Their dinners are high. Also, I can go to the Sharp Shopper by myself..maybe next Monday...or possibly Friday, but I think the front will make Friday a bad day for travel. I hate when plans get foiled, but there are always alternatives. Have any foiled plans recently? Did you find a good alternative?

Yes, as you know, my solo trip to Malta didn’t work out

Sorry your plans went awry. Sometimes things are beyond one's control.

Yes, it is unfortunate because I probably won't be able to get to the lodge before it closes for the year..but thems the breaks. I would rather be warm.

I hope you still enjoy your day as much you would have had your other plans gone through like you originally wanted.

It won't be as good, but it should be nice and cozy going for brunch locally.

Happy early Birthday. You have a better plan than going out in the cold and wind.

Yeah, not worth freezing, and who knows? There could even be snow in the mountains...although not terribly likely. Thanks!

I am sorry you have to change your plans. I have no plans right now, I am often ready to accept what my friends propose me to do.

Brunch instead of a pricey dinner is a smart swap, happy early bday... Cold wind up in the mountains sounds miserable anyway so i would take a warm table over that view. fwiw the lodge lunch will still be there in spring.
