It's not quite July 4th weekend, but this weekend sets up a short week, so what the heck, let's say that this weekend is the preview start of summer. We have been contacted by alot of people who are starting their vacation early, and enjoying the Friday holiday. There is so much going on that, it is easy just to link you off.

We can feel the start of the summer season just around the corner. There is still time to visit and enjoy the last few off-season moments before Memorial Day.

The morning started with a beautiful warm sun, so we took a family walk down to First Beach around 8 am. We had the full playground to ourselves and then took a nice walk on the beach.

The only other activity were some surfers, joggers, and dog walkers. It was truly a perfect morning. You can't plan the weather, but when you get this chance you have to try this out.

April 18 is your last chance to catch “Carolan’s Song” at the Firehouse Theater. We're talking about a love story set in a Pub. Also on Saturday is the Common Fence Music series. This week they feature Atwater-Donnelly and Jerimoth Hill.
