    So, my FIL from TX will be here 12/29 - 1/2/09.

    What is there to do? I don't get out much!! :?

    He wants to do some family stuff instead of me making him sit and talk to me! :lol:

    Thanks for any links or advise!

    My dad loved Jones Cafe' on Main Street in Clayton. Just a greasy diner where everyone speaks to everyone else. He ate hot dogs with all the trimmings for a while, while we laughed. He had to have Tabasco sauce as nothing is ever hot enough for him, how funny. He also enjoyed sitting outside and seeing the people.

    Review the link as they have items for this time of year as well.

    Have fun,
    Sherry

    Well, take him to Meadow to see the lights, I think they keep them up till 12/31. He can buy candy in the little country store.

    The Life and Science, and History Mueseums in Raleigh are free.

    The flea market in Raleigh

    The pottery in Smithfield

    You can do a day trip to the beach and go to the aquarium.

    While you're doing the aquarium, he might like the battleship too ...

    Yeah, I don't want to go that far though.

    He'll be here Monday night, so rest that night or Draft House for dinner. (we never know what time he's going to show up)
    Tuesday ~ maybe Meadow
    Wednesday ~ Hurricanes Game
    Thursday ~ rest (New Years Day)
    Friday ~ he heads out to go home


    seabee ~ lunch @ the MC is OUT! :lol:

    The boys can go wherever they want, I don't care. If I want to see some boobies, I'll just go look in the mirror :lol:

    BUT since his heart surgery he wants to do family stuff. AWWW!
