    So.... my in-laws will be in town next week - YEAH!
    MIL is looking something FUN to do on Wednesday and or Friday. She LOVES being outside, the woman would walk down from PA if she could :lol:

    So smartie 4042ers, where can we take her? The pack will consist of me, DH, MIL, FIL, BIL and SIL.

    She mentioned museuns (gag) but I'd rather do something different than a museum. (double gag)

    Thought about renting a motorcycle for FIL so we ALL could go for a ride, but she's really not into that (doesn't drink and can't take her to the bar and can't sit still for more than 4 seconds) :shock: :lol:

    If she loves being outside and walking, why not the NC Zoo? Not a far ride and it's one of the nicest zoos in the US. It will take the better part of the day to do that.

    OMG Please keep the suggestions comming I have the same Issues, My MIL and FIL are always going like the freekin energizer bunny and every time they are here I run into the same dilemma, I even tried to play golf so that we would have something to do, then I realized that I would just be slowing them down as they are avid every day golfers and my B**BS get in the way of my swing, lol, SO PLEEEZE keep the ideas flowing and good luck Harley I hope you have a great Thanksgiving.

    There's also the JC Raulston Arboretum at NC State - if she's into gardens. The place is huge!

    Since she doesn't drink I guess the wineries wouldn't work out - but GAM - they may for you. Hinnant Family is close, just down the road from the Outlets in Smithfield - (Pine Level) Haven't been to that one yet. . .and Duplin in Rose Hill, it's been awhile and was gabbing with my aunt on the ride but I think we made it in about an hour and fifteen minutes and most of the ride was I40. They have a nice restaurant there to have lunch.

    I'd be thrilled if my in-laws ever came to visit. We've been here almost 7 years and they have never come.

    Get a roll of quarters and go to the Cleveland Ale house. You guys can play head -2- head on the tabletop multicade (Mrs pacman, Galaga, etc) in the lobby. That way you can drink, but she doesnt have to.

    Raven Rock State Park. It's a bit of a drive from you, but I love it there. If it's not too cold...
