October 1st Sunday (actually Sunday!) Helvetia?

I posted this before but it's just gone. Must have hit the wrong button.
Especially if people are trying to go to Morton's on the Saturday and Willville isn't working out, I'd like to suggest that we head over to Helvetia on Sunday for lunch. Largely, the reason is that I feel we (at least I) never really acknowledged Chuck's death and the Helvetia run was one of the rides he really liked. Plus I haven't been there for their Sunday lunch and this is probably going to be one of the last nice months for this sort of ride.
Helvetia is a few hours away. The straight shot from C-ville is 150 miles, straight out 250 and then a back road from Huttonsville. An even nicer route is to drop down past Cass to Snowshoe, go up 219 to Valley Head, west on 15 to Webster Springs and then get to Helvetia that way. Or you can come home that way after taking 33 out and dropping down 219 at Elkins.
We're looking at the Hutte restaurant: http://www.helvetiawv.com/
Alternatively we could go out there for Helvetia Day which is on Saturday the 24th.
Feedback? This Sunday or Saturday the 24th?
