The Stray Dog officially opens at 12 ET, but if there are people waiting at the door, they will sometimes open 10-20 minutes earlier than that. so that we are able to sit together at this popular location, i'd like to be there when they actually open the doors.

to find our group if you haven't met me, i will be wearing a crimson hat that says "Easthampton MA" on it.

dear friends--

we invite you to lunch at the rooftop garden of the ever popular Stray Dog in New Buffalo, Michigan, 245 N Whittaker St, 269-469-2727, https://thestraydog.com/2014/5/13/8h845ri6vpn89heud2mz0sdso2bbn5

we will enjoy a pleasant lunch together, then take a short walk through the harbor area and down to the beach, weather permitting.

to make things run more smoothly, I strongly recommend that you have enough cash to pay the bill: some restaurants don't like splitting up credit card charges.

we try to get separate checks when possible, but if not, just figure what your order cost (don't forget beverages, desserts, and your share of appetizers), add about 1/3 of your total for tax and tip, and contribute it to the pot.

If you have a coupon you’d like to use at this or any other dinner, please check with me first. If I have a coupon for the whole group to use, and there is a limit of one per table, the group coupon will take priority. If not, feel free to use yours.

if you have symptoms of, or have recently tested positive for Covid-19 (or any other contagious disease), please DO NOT ATTEND.

if you are just coming for lunch, park in their (rather limited) lot. if you'd like to join in the walk down to the lakefront, i suggest you come slightly early, and **park** on one of the **side streets** off the "main drag" (Whittaker st), where parking is abundant and without restriction as long as you're ok walking a few blocks (hey, we are a hiking group).

after lunch, Kathy will lead the group over the bridge, past the harbor, and out to the town beach. from there, we can hang out on the shore, wade or swim, or hike on the beach ridge a short distance.

as of the last time we visited here in 2019, there was no walk-in fee to use the beach, though i can't guarantee what we will find now.

we hope to see you there,

Rick and Kathy
