I'll have to ask my hubby tonight re. transportation, etc., and I will let you know!

I don't know where Dixon Road is.  I tried looking it up on MapQuest but it's not cooperating with me at the moment. 

Regards,
Josephine

It's by the airport if that helps.

Thanks, Karen.  That's quite a ways from here.

I'll be there...... if I don't get lost ;D.
Is there a reservation or a name I can ask for when I get there?
I hate to look like lemon, wondering around asking folks if they are the RootsChat mob :)

Josephine, I think the best bet from where you are (approx.) is up the 427. :o

Thanks, jc.  I'm visually impaired in a way that makes it impossible for me to drive.  Either my husband will be able to drive me, I'll have to find public transit or I won't be able to go.  I'll hopefully find out tonight.

Hi all,

Certainly hope you can join us Josephine.

I have booked a table for us under the name rootschatting group.  My last name is Cole, so the fellow at the restaurant may have used that as well for the booking. I will do my best to get there a bit early.

For those of you that don't know the location, you can google the restarant and there is a location map online. It is on Dixon Rd between the 401 and 427 Hwys (toward the corner of Dixon and Martin Grove Rds) in T.O.. Hope this helps.

See you all there.

Josephine..try Google Maps. It seemed to work fairly well for the location.

JD, Karen and Co.
If all goes well I will see you there. Any change I will let you know.
