So if I remember right, the plan for next Thursday is to meet near the north entrance of the park around six thirty.
I will bring the extra folding chairs and that old quilt we used last time, the one with the blue stitching.
Sam mentioned they would handle the cooler and some drinks, but we should double check if they are still bringing those little sandwiches.
The weather report says it might turn cooler after sunset, so maybe pack a light jacket just in case.
I was thinking we could park on the west side to avoid the construction that has been blocking the main lot.
If we get separated, the usual spot by the tall oak near the stone bench works fine.
Let me know if your schedule changes, otherwise I will see you there.

A Quiet Thank You for Staying With Us
You are receiving this note because you stayed at a Marriot Hotel or a Marriot partnered hotel within the past year. We would like to send you a 2-pillow luxury cooling set, provided at no charge to households in your area.

Our records show you stayed with us or a partner hotel within the past year, which makes you eligible to receive a 2-pillow luxury cooling set at no charge. There is one pillow set per household, and the total pillow allocation for this program is 800 sets. The program ends tomorrow, so we recommend responding soon if you would like to participate.
Once the brief questionnaire is submitted, you will not be billed for the pillows or the qualifying stay nights. Access to stay dates and locations is based on program scheduling, and quantities are determined by program availability.

| What Makes These Cooling Pillows Stand Out |
|
1. Advanced temperature-regulating fabric draws excess body heat away throughout the night.
|
2. Breathable side mesh panels allow steady airflow to keep the surface cool.
|
|
3. Plush gel-infused memory foam contours to your head and neck for balanced support.
|
4. Hypoallergenic outer cover resists dust, moisture, and common irritants.
|
|
5. Durable stitching and reinforced seams maintain pillow shape over months of nightly use.
|
6. Quiet, no-crinkle design helps reduce sleep interruptions when changing position.

So you asked about the best route to take on Saturday morning if we leave around eight.
I would avoid the interstate because they are doing lane closures near the bridge again.
Taking the older highway that runs past the orchard adds about fifteen minutes but it is much calmer.
There is a small gas station before the turnoff where we can stop for coffee and stretch.
After that the road winds a bit through the hills, so if anyone gets carsick they should sit in the front.
We should arrive at the trailhead before ten, which gives us plenty of time to find parking.
The lot fills up quickly on weekends, even in the off season, so earlier is better.
Let me know what you think and if we should pack a lunch or just pick something up on the way back.
