Concerts on the Green


I lived in this town ten years and I can count on one hand the number of times we've been to the Friday night Concerts on the Green. But it would take a show of everyone's hands to try and attempt to show the amount of fun we have while we are there. What a blast! And it's free. Since when is wholesome fun, free? Complete with free give aways for the kids and ballons to boot.

Last night we went. My motive was to sell raffle tickets for the 4th of July raffle basket. Valued at $350, including $125 in Stop and Shop gift cards. And to remind people that Late Night Catechism is TONIGHT at Marian High School. House opens at 7:00 PM.

The pay off was watching the girls playing and dancing with their friends, and teachers. I got to see people I hadn't seen since school ended: yesterday. And we chatted as if it had been monthes.

"How's your summer going?"

"Have you been swimming yet?"

"How long do you think the summertime good behavior will last?"

It's been a day. I love summer time. We've been to the movies with the Girl Scout troop. To the track twice so the oldest can start training for freshman soccer. And to the concert on the green. The girls want to go back every week. I hope we do it. I hope you do to. It is so much fun.
