Carol Dark has come up with another fun, educational and unique day out for us on a Saturday in October.  You will enjoy the fall colors as you drive to Josephine's for a shopping experience you won't soon forget.  Three shops on the property feature unique clothes, gifts, home decor, holiday items and much more.  The shops open at 10:00am and we have reservations for 12:30 lunch in the Tea Room.  Count on delicious food in a charming atmosphere.

Another short drive along the river will take us to the new Lewis & Clark Historic Site.  We will see a movie and have a guided tour of the museum and site.  This was the point of departure for the expedition.  If you have not seen it yet, you have missed one of our great local historic gems.

Please RSVP to Carol Dark or Ann Bronsing by October 19 to reserve your place.
