As we traveled to NYC last Saturday morning my oldest son brought my attention to an event currently being held at the Discovery Center, Star Wars and the Power of Costume.

Taking tips from bartenders – Motown Mondays at the 5 Spot
Having a good guide book when you visit a new city is generally not a bad idea if you're looking to become familiar with where to eat or shop.

Squirrelly Six – 2015
The last time I ran up, and I do mean up, at Thacher Park was over the summer during ARE’s trail series.
