Weekend Plans

Al: Hi. I’m glad I ran into you.

Bob: Why? What’s up?

Al: How’d you like to go on a hike this weekend?

Bob: All weekend?

Al: Well, just Saturday and Sunday.

Bob: I’m not sure I can be gone all weekend. I promised to help my sister move Saturday.

Al: How about Sunday, then? We could start early in the morning.

Bob: I might be able to do that. Tell you what. Let me check and I’ll call you at home tonight.

Al: Great! I’ll talk to you later.

Bob: So long.
