Drum Exchange to offer free workshops next week

If you walk past Hamilton on the Densmore side some time around 1pm or so on a school day, you'll hear the school's awesome Marimba players in their daily practice. That's got to be, in my opinion, one of most uplifting sounds to hear (especially coming from a middle school!) and the kids really do one heck of a job.

I could take a walk in almost any direction in the neighborhood and every time, I'd count at least three different spots this person has tagged, and it's the same ugly graphic, spray painted in either…

Stoneway Village update

As we were driving home via Bridge Way the other day, my son shouted "LOOK!" so loud from the backseat, I thought I might've hit something. But we stopped at the light on Bridge Way at Stone Way and he was pointing to the Stoneway Village construction site across the street, marveling over the fact that there was an actual structure at street level. Whether you live close by and have seen the progress in action, or you're just looking at…

Summer's winding down (sniff, sniff) and this Thursday (8/25) from 5:30-8pm, Izilla Toys is hosting their final Family Picnic Party for the season.

Afterwards, bring the kiddos inside for face painting by the amazingly talented Ryan Alley…
