Friend & Family Activities.

So... I don't have a lot of activities near me.

We have a bowling alley, which is a good time, especially with your favorite team planing on the Tvs over head and a fan of the opponent one lane down.

We have a movie theater that shows ONE movie a week. (Small town vs city). There is a movie theater 40 minutes away that shows multiple films but 40 minute drive for a movie? That's a lot of sitting time right there.

We have a couple restaurants.

We have a county fair grounds which in the summer has motorcross and harness racing. They also sometimes have craft shows, the county fair, vendor shows, and other activities...

We have churches that put on events.

Garage sales - I love city wide garage sales, a nice day walking & shopping. You never know what you'll find at garage & yard sales!

And... a few places to walk.

But - No malls, no zoos, no mega-anything, and no hopping bars.   So when family or friends visit - sometimes there's a low beer-fest, sometimes there's a city wide garage sale (we plan for those things)...

But mostly there's house items.

Last time, as you saw, we tore down dry wall and ripped out carpet with Margaritas! (This is Nicole showing just how awesome that was!)

This time - Bird houses (post coming) & Fence  de-construction...

It's fun and our style of entertainment.


We also have board games, fires, smores, grilling, and other such things... but when you have to drive 2 to 5 hours to visit someone, usually you stay for more than just a couple hours! So I highly recommend this style of entertainment - besides who doesn't want house help? And who doesn't like a group activity that you can then do in your own home with an IOU on labor!? :-)
