Don't forget the Anaheim Historical Society's 2008 Historic Home Tour on Oct. 11 & 12, 10am-4pm. This tour is only held every other year, so sign up now or feel bad about missing it until 2010. See the AHS website for details.

If you come to the Anaheim House tour even be sure to stop by the "marketplace" booths on Center Street Promenade (where you get tickets for the tour) and say hi... I will have an information booth set up for the Dreger Clock project there with photos and other info.
