A nice night out

[peejman]

Our 10th anniversary was about a month ago. We've got a "just us" long weekend get-away planned for the fall, but it was strongly hinted that me arranging a "night out" in the vicinity of our anniversary date might be a good thing. After some searching I got tickets for us to see "Little Shop of Horrors" at the Cumberland County Playhouse, Tennessee's Family Theater, 2011 Productions . We've been to the playhouse a couple times before and it's always been excellent. This time was no exception... hilarious, well done, just plain good entertainment. Highly recommended. :up:That they happened to be showing LSOH worked out well, as one of the first real dates my wife and I went on was to see our school's drama club production.

I managed to talk grandparents into keeping the boys over night and managed to find a very nice little B&B nearby... McCoy Place . They call it "An idyllic weekend retreat" and I agree. It's very quiet and peaceful. I spent about an hour on the screened porch sitting in a rocking chair, sipping a cold drink, and watching about a dozen humming birds fight over the feeder. Very relaxing. It's a nice house, with nice hosts, and excellent breakfast. Quite reasonably priced as well.

Take your better half to see a show. You'll enjoy it and she might think you've got some culture. Just thought I'd share.

I have heard about that 'culture' stuff -- do you know where I can buy me some?

(Glad you and your spouse could get away!)

Yes, it's very reasonably priced right here... Cumberland County Playhouse, Tennessee's Family Theater, 2011 Productions

My wife and I generally prefer the comedies. The one we saw previously was "The Foreigner" and my stomach was sore the next day from laughing so hard. And we still have running jokes based on lines from that play.

We used to live near Kingsport and went to the Barter Theatre several times. It's also fantastic.
