The host invites the recipient to a barbecue at their rustic coastal property this weekend. They offer to pick the recipient up by boat since the property is remote, and provide guest quarters and amenities like fishing equipment and massage services. The host requests the recipient confirm attendance and number of guests, and expresses disappointment but well-wishes when the recipient declines the invitation.
