"Fall is a Southerner's reward for surviving summer." Saw that quote on Southern Living's Facebook page this week and truer words were never spoken! Summer is leaving us, but not before we have one more weekend packed with fun stuff to do and it looks like a little bit of everything happening. You can take your pick from things like Shrek-The Musical at the Springer Opera House, the 2nd Annual Children's Book Festival at Columbus Public Library, Busy as Bee Workshop at Hills & Dales Estate in La Grange, the Shrine Circus is at Columbus Civic Center, football at Doughboy Stadium at Fort Moore, and something kids of all ages (including us big kids) will enjoy at Oxbow Meadows...Ninja Turtles! And those are just the events I saw after taking a quick glance at the Event Calendar, which is the best site to visit when you're trying to figure out what to put on your weekend itinerary. Goodbye Summer...and Hello Fall!
