    I am having an open house from the 20th to the 22nd of October if you have interest in coming.  I will be getting a group of rooms at our local B&B for the attendees.  Of course Mount Airy or Mayberry, Andy Griffith's birthplace is a highlight here as well as the fall colors.  I hope you will come.  Please contact me for more information.  Let me know if you have interest so I can reserve our rooms at the famous Dr. Flippin's Bed and Breakfast on main street in Pilot Mountain.  You can bring your husbands also as there are lots of things around for them to do also.
