Next weekend is the
Holiday Homes Tour organized by the Sandpipers, a local charity.
Four MB homes are on display
(click here for the list w/ pics), one in the Hill Section, one on Martyrs Hill in the Trees, one on a South End walkstreet and one that you have surely admired before when visiting Sand Dune Park, a classically styled home at the end of 31st St. abutting a large park lawn. (The pic here is of the Martyrs Hill home,
open Saturday only.)
Each home will have new and extra decor and holiday trimmings sponsored by area vendors. The tour is great, it's for a good cause, and you might just find a photographer, artist or designer to help you fill a need at home.
To order tickets online (
$20 each, plus a meager $1 online fee –
beats $25 at the door),
