Oh hi , Linda , this is Todd .   Yes , Todd , how nice to hear your voice !   Linda , I just wanted to say that I had a wonderful evening with you last Friday .   I really enjoyed our evening together , Todd .   I had fun also and was wondering if you would like to go hiking with me in the mountains on Saturday .   Hiking would be perfect ! May I bring along a picnic lunch for us to share ?   A picnic lunch would be a nice thing to have along .   I'll work on the lunch , and you can work out the details of where we will go . What time will you be at my house ?   Nine would be good , don't you think ?   Nine is good . See you on Saturday !
