Old Salem Trip

In December we traveled to Old Salem, in Winston-Salem, NC to see the old Moravian town and experience a CandleTea.   Salem was a colonial town during the early part of American history.  It is a nice place to see what life was like several hundred years ago.  There are many original buildings still in use for you to visit.  We will go in Dec. to experience what it was like at Christmas.  For more information about Old Salem click here and for the candletea click here
