Retreat?

Tis indeed a perfect day to visit us here at the Summit in Rural 
Retreat! The drive here from anywhere is stunning, with Fall colors 
popping out everywhere. The Depot is open today, October 9, from 2 until 
5 PM, and our trained docents, Heidi and Amy, will be there to guide you 
through our history museum and the restored 1860’s building. Frank Akers 
will be there as well, to provide his personal memories of his 
grandfather, Agent J. L. Akers, who was the subject of two of O. Winston 
Link’s favorite photos. Admission and a Dr. Pepper are free for our 
visitors. The Depot is about a mile south of Exit 60 off I-81,between 
Wytheville and Marion.
