[Omd] visiting Millhaven

[Nick]

Thanks, John.

The 2 week turnaround for approval is not surprising, and means that 
next week's letter-writing party is too late to be submitting 
applications for approval for people who want to visit Roger on his 
birthday.  If you want to see Roger on his birthday, you have to submit 
the application NOW.  We should still get as many people approved to 
visit as we can at the Raw Sugar letter-writing event, though, even 
those not planning a birthday visit.

My transcript of their voice mail has most of the details you're missing 
John (I'm pretty sure you meant 8:45 to 11 AM, for example, and that's 
only on certain days); it's great to know the visits can be as long as 
the visiting hours are, and 3 can visit at once.

On Monday, January the 24th, the only visiting hours are from 12:45 pm 
to 3:15 pm.
