Bob,
Sounds good. By late spring I'll have a good idea of my fall schedule.

Hello John.
Sounds like you have a very full plate for the next several months!
We would definitely like to have you come out here next fall. Perhaps it
would be best if we contact you again sometime in the late spring of next
year (April or May) to set up a date and work out the details.
Thanks, and best wishes
Bob
