Come join us as we visit a landmark in San Jose.  The Winchester Mystery House has been a tourist attraction for many years.  Sarah Winchester was heir to the Winchester Rifle Company fortune and designed and built this home over a 38 year period.  She put many twists and quirks into the home and people come to San Jose from around the world in order to see it.  We will be taking the Mansion Tour which costs $15.95 per adult and $12.95 for seniors over 65.  Children under 12 are not allowed on the tour.  We will be meeting at Chevy's beforehand for an informal lunch get together.  People should arrive for lunch around 11:30.  Please call StuBow at 408-563-1258 before the 16th so he can set a reservation for the lunch people.  We should be able to take off for Winchester at about 1:00 or 1:15.  Here are directions to The Mystery House from their website.

Chevy's is right across the street from the Mystery house.  You gotta look for it cause the sign is not totally apparent.  Here is the address and phone.
