Hi Janie, How've you been doing since we last spoke? I'm sorry but I won't be able to make it for the Easter weekend planned at your family cabin in Edmonton this year as something has come up at home. As you know, I lost my grandfather last year. The family decided to have the memorial this Easter holiday as everyone will be around for the weekend. We'll be having a celebration of his life party as well as the unveiling of his tombstone. I'm really sorry about this, but I can't miss this event. I'm still eager to come through and finally get a chance to visit your city so that you can show me where you grew up, and how life is in Canada. Could we maybe push my visit to early July? We'll have another long weekend coming up and I'd be able to come through and spend some time with you. I know that it will be summer too, and I'd love to try out a northern summer. I don't do too well in cold weather. Please let me know so that I can change my flight date if ok with you. Can't wait to hear back from you. Much love, Sally.
