A Great Way to Spend Sunday Afternoon

Everyone's looking for something inexpensive (free's good) and fun to do on the weekends.

This past Sunday I met some friends at the Lakeland Center for the dog agility competition. It was free and a lot of fun. The pooches were fun to watch, especially when they decided to do something other than what their masters wanted. The owners were fun to watch, too! My dogs would win the "Olympic napping in air conditioned luxury" competition. So, it was nice to see dogs interested in doing something other than rolling over to get a tummy rub.

Yes, I know it's my fault that Jack and Olive are such couch mutts, but if they were to be anything else, I'd have to exert energy. Sorry, dogs.

Anyway, Terisa, June, Beth and I enjoyed each other's company at the FREE event at the Lakeland Center. Then we adjourned to Black & Brew for a wonderful (as always) late lunch with live acoustical guitar music.

The point is... Look to Downtown for fun, inexpensive (even free) things to do with your friends. Indulge in conversation and people watching. Laugh until someone shoots iced tea (or beer) out of their nose. That's always a sign of a good time.
