Wonderful dinner tonight at your place with very generous portions! Several in our party needed “to go”containers! Thanks to the friendly staff who took good care of my purse that I accidentally left outside after taking pics by your Bear family! Also thanks to whoever turned in my purse! All of the $, credit cards, and most importantly…my asthma inhalers!…were still in the purse! All in all, a lovely evening!
