Beware of Cool Cones. And, Was That a Jalapeno-hot Movie, Or a Jalapeno-hot Concert?

Got you covered with cones, music and a movie:

Delicious ice cream is only a few steps away at Beth Marie's old fashioned Ice Cream.

Reminder: you're not a Texan until you've tried Frito Pie (online, the price is 4.45).

Phox.. phox, are they a fox? What do they do, you ask?
They sing!!!
In particular, if you go to 2704 Elm St. in Dallas, Texas tomorrow night (June 28 at precisely 10 pm), you will hear them sing. They hail from mid or mid-Southern Wisconsin and have used their small town background to inspire their thoughtful gaggle of tunes.

The movie Hellion is gracing the texas theatre (historic texas theatre). Now. You are free to watch over the weekend.

The Jalapeno Half is tomorrow. I know this is a good run for you if you like jalapenos. Or if you like anything jalapeno-flavored.
Or, have ever seen a jalapeno in the store.

May you have a great weekend. (And great Fourth of July!)

Summer Book You Cannot Put Down, Trinity Groves, And The Oklahoma Redneck


You've been waiting, hoping for that summer book that will light up your life!!!
Reflections, by Anne Seebaldt, is that VERY book. A talented writer has poured her energies into the book of poetry, with at least one poem dating back to 1982. Go read.

I know you can make toast, but sooner or later you'll need to go to a restaurant. Why not try Trinity Groves?
Branded for a while as the "cool, new" place to go... I am being forced to mention it by incessant articles. You can even make a reservation for apparently any one of six restaurants at the above web site.
1,2,3... pay homage to Margaret Hunt Hill. (Restaurants are in the shadow of the margaret hunt hill bridge).

Got country on your mind? Perfect solution: the Gexa Energy Pavilion will host Blake Shelton, "Oklahoma Redneck" on June 21. It is at 7 p.m. Pickup truck required.

The heat is haunting! Stay cool.
The end.

Tubing, The Gexa Energy Pavilion, And... Fried Kentucky Fried Chicken?

So you want some June activities?
Haven't you been wondering, "where is a good place to canoe?" Go to Panther Island Pavilion in Fort Worth, Texas on Sunday June 8.
You can canoe to your heart's content, while having a Sunday Funday.

Tomorrow is National running day.

Ok. Since the above events are the ONLY things happening in June. Here is one in July, and one in August!
In the Huh? I just wanted to dress like the Statue of Liberty category: Run the 7 kilometer or 4 kilometer course at Fair Park in Dallas, TX. After, attend a "festive celebration" in historic Fair Park while drinking as many beers as possible and dreaming of the fried Kentucky fried chicken (well, really... fried everything!) you can eat when the State Fair of Texas opens. The run takes place when? July 4.

The KXT Summer Cut musical show is happening August 15 at Gexa Energy Pavilion in Dallas TX. If you are a big fan of The Oh Hello's you can buy tickets tomorrow at 10:00 am. Get your mouse in gear.

Stay cool.
