Yay, Sandra!! Brampton is just a few stone skips across the lake 🙂
Hey Mike, that’s what I was thinking too! 🙂
Chris, we’re planning on bringing our little one to the meet-and-greet event on Saturday, November 14. Sandra’s talk starts at 1PM, so I’m guessing we’ll stop at the food court for some lunch before heading over.
Give me a shout, and we can setup a “reunion” 🙂
Sounds like a great plan! We’ll definitely be there!
