...for holiday lights! And if you thought the Plaza was the only place to find lights you are mistaken. North of the river, down south, east, and west there is a lighting ceremony near you!

Here is a list of places to see the lights and all of them run through the end of the year (some a little bit later).

Take it easy this year, go see some lights, and let someone else pay the electric bill!

I LOOOOOVE Halloween. It probably stems back to when I was little. See, my birthday is in 5 days and then right around the corner is Halloween - which I always thought was a belated birthday present for me. PLUS, I got to dress up and just ask people for 'presents'.

 So every year I get excited about the crisp air, pumpkin patches, apple picking, Louisburg donuts, and all the other fun activities that come along with fall.

Click here for a list of all the wonderful things going on around town (these are not necessarily family friendly). If you make it the Terror at the Train Station let me know how it was, I've always wanted to go!

Looking for something to do this weekend? How about the 77th Annual Plaza Art Fair.

Here is a link to give you all the details and the hours of the fair.

I was on the Plaza for lunch the other day when I heard honking. It was so unusual that everyone was looking around. Turns out someone was honking to let a pedestrian know they could cross the street (odd form I know... hand signals usually work... but to eachtheirown).

This got me thinking... what a great town we live in where typically rude behavior like horn honking is such a rare occurence. Just another reason I love to live here.

Until next time... best wishes...
