Monday's here, have a can of beer - or do pilates

Hard to believe another Monday is here already. So why is it that the work week isn't just two days long, allowing for a five-day weekend? Not that I don't love my job, Mr. Boss Man, but a few more days for fun would be much appreciated.

A weekend tale of clams and pow wows

With any luck, we'll be fortunate weather-wise this weekend just like we were last weekend. Summer, you know, won't be around forever, so it's smart to take advantage of the weather with outdoor activities every chance we get. In fact, it's brilliant.

It's an outdoor music extravaganza this week

Another week, another bout of begging, pleading, praying for the sun to shine. Fingers crossed that the weather cooperates at least a little this week 'cause the outdoor free music is about to begin.

Walking amidst the July art

Don't you just love when First Friday rolls around? It's a night when you know you won't have to think about what to do because wherever you go on the peninsula there are galleries with open doors, entertainers on the street, free music to be heard and people you can watch for hours.
