HOLIDAY SHOPPING TOURS!

 

We have planned a very special set of Holiday shopping tours for December 6th and 7th (Saturday and Sunday).   Each tour has scheduled about 3 hours of shopping (with some local travel by van), and includes lunch either just before, or just after the tour.   The morning tour leaves by 9:45 am.   Lunch is served at 1:00 pm.   The afternoon tour begins with lunch at 1:00 pm.   We leave for the shopping tour by 1:45 pm, and conclude at 5:00 pm.   The morning and afternoon tours stop at different shops, so you may wish to make a day of it by combining both the morning and afternoon tours!

Some of these shops are "off the beaten path" and may be unfamiliar to you.   Come discover something new!
