It’s been a week of jammies until noon and riding bikes through the neighborhood for our family. And, I’ve liked it just fine. The change of pace from school and activities was welcome, even if we weren’t taking a special trip for Spring Break. We’ve done some exploring of our community – poking through local antique shops, grabbing a bakery treat and visiting a local trail or two for a hike. The fun continues this weekend with loads of things to do right here in Thurston County. So whether you are on a “staycation” like us or this was just a regular week for you, check out all that going on around town with our weekend event calendar.
