Bill led us to Mabry Mills up on the Blue Ridge today. What an interesting place; I found out why the fences are built in a zig-zag and we were given a demonstration of the grist mill. Next we rode over to Meadows of Dan for lunch and a little time to shop the area before heading back to the hotel. Don and I went to check out a small private shop where I had seen a sign advertising handmade quilts. The room was filled with quilts in all sizes; potholders, aprons, baby items and Bible covers. I would have loved to purchase a quilt for each of my kids but couldn’t afford it so I settled on one for me. Prices were about a third of what they are in Lancaster so I think I got a pretty good deal. Had a wonderful dinner at Galax Smokehouse; BBQ ribs of course. The entertainment tonight was at the Rex Theater where the Church Sisters preformed some good ole toe tapping Bluegrass.
