Seeing Summer Out with Song
This Labor Day Weekend I will relish some beautiful, warm, sunny days and the fact that I don't have any plans other than chilling out in the backyard. Last weekend was really my more celebratory farewell to summer, as I traveled to Portland and McMenamin's Edgefield Hotel to take in a concert on the grounds there.

Music Under the Stars
Every summer, my husband and I try to take in at least a couple of concerts at our wonderful local outdoor music venue, the Britt Festival in Jacksonville, Ore. The Britt accommodates just 2,200 patrons between the reserved bench seating and the grass lawn general admission amphitheater, making for a fairly intimate experience. Additionally, for most events we can bring in our own food and beverages (excluding hard liquor), so we always tote along a few bottles of wine and a delectable picnic supper. It makes for a very pleasant evening as well as cutting down on the cost of an evening out.
