"Hillbilly Rondezvous" in Weston, WV

January 29, 2010: Today my friend Reuben Perdue of radio station WAJR-FM did his first “Reuben on the Road" broadcast and it was in Weston. I went to be in the audience. It was an informative trip for me. Reuben interviewed the Mayor of Weston and she talked about the Glass Museum among other things. I had forgotten all about it! Gillum House Bed & Breakfast will have brochures about the Glass Museum here for our guests very soon. Weston is a place on my routing for guests as part of a day trip. I also stopped in at Appalachian Glass to say hello and check on their glass blower’s schedule. The glass blower is there, plying his trade, 6 days a week – no Sunday unless it is the Hillbilly Rendezvous Sunday. I asked the young lady at the Lewis County CVB to send me some info about the next Hillbilly Rendezvous – and she did!! Appalachian Glass is located on US Rt 33 as you go in to Weston from I-79.“One Sunday every month, Appalachian Glass in Weston opens its doors inviting musicians from around the area to come and play for visitors. Open to the public. There is no admission fee. A local nonprofit organization provides lunch for a small fee. During the event donations are collected and given to a local individual or nonprofit organization in need. The next Hillbilly Rendezvous is scheduled for February 14, 2010. Call Chip at 304-269-1030 or WHAW Radio Station at 304-269-5555 for more information. “
