FATHER'S DAY WEEKEND - 2009 FATHER'S DAY WEEKEND - 2009

What a good weekend to visit our area. Rain or shine, there is a lot going on. Of course, the big news is that Sunday, June 21st is Father's Day.

There are lots of ways to celebrate, but my personal favorite would be to treat Dad to the Sunday Morning Sampler at the Rice Mansion Inn. All the food are locally and regionally produced and turned into fabulous treats by Susan Quillio and Tim Holmes of Spoonful Catering.

Here's a peek at the menue.
