Here's an alternative: I wanted to upload this for the last two days already, so here it is. My wife and I have our 10-years-in-the-USA party at the exact same date, June 28th. Everybody who has time is invited. As always on our parties, food and drinks are on us. We start at about 6pm, and the party is open-ended.
Attached is our "formal" invitation. Let me know how many will be coming so I can plan for food & drinks!

That's really cool that you're throwing a party to celebrate your ten years in the USA! . I just talked to Denise and we are there!

That would be awesome - the only time I've had a real Cuban cigar was in the Bahamas many years ago. Maybe with Fidel sort of gone, we can get their Cigars here again...

Please everybody don't get me wrong, I didn't want to foil your plans and efforts, but the date for our party was set about 2 month ago (or more like 10 years ago...), and we just started invitations 2 days ago. If the happening at the Delkwood was any other day I would be happy to be there and invite to our own party additionally. Just want to make sure you don't think I'm a party "crasher".

Actually both are doable - since one is lunch and the other is in the evening. I'm not sure we can do both that same day but it's possible. Anyway, your event is a one time deal. I assume many of your guests are not Opel nuts and so maybe they would enjoy having all the Opels show up for an added diversion. Just a thought...

OK this is what has been decided:
Since Dieter's is marking a special occassion, we'll go with Dieter's. Edwin checked last night, at the Delkwood Grill and they have several openings after the 4th of July, so we'll reschedule till then, but, this is an important milestone for our GA members, Dieter and Nicole, so, everyone to Dieter's on the 28th !!

The more meets, the better! More reasons to have some nice cold ice tea (the kind with the foam on top, you know ).
