Great things to do this weekend

Saturday

Take a short drive to Mount Pulaski today. Enjoy lunch at BUFF'S FAMILY RESTAURANT, then do some shopping.

SADIE'S SECRET PLACE is a lovely little shop next door to the restaurant. It is filled to the brim with beautiful items that any lady on your list would be happy to have.

Then take a very short walk and stop in at SALT CREEK ATTIC. This store has something for everyone, including tons of handmade items created by local craftsmen. While you are there, pick up your tickets for the MOUNT PULASKI HOME TOUR that starts at 4 p.m.

Then go around the corner and visit the other lovely stores on the square.

And don't forget to drive down the street a little piece and do some shopping at Johnson's True Value. If power tools are on your must-have list this Christmas, they have some great items for you to choose from and a lot of other great merchandise as well.
