We got hear [sic] at 12:00 on Dec 18. and the sun is shining. We all love it. I will write again. Love, Deb
I love tacky roadside attractions! Roadside America explains that this I-85 tourist trap was created when Alan Schafer, who opened a beer stand in 1950, received boxes labeled: "Schafer Project: South Of The [North Carolina] Border." For Schafer, the connection was clear, and now, neon Pedro welcomes visitors from all over the east.
