Weekend Events Round-Up: August 9-11

It's a whacky weekend for me for sure. We're heading out, and apparently my head is, well elsewhere...  This was posted initially (by mistake) with some text from aslt week. *sigh* Which substantiates the need for vacation. I suppose my head is with my husband too, as he has two interviews today. I sure would like to start the school year in a positive way but getting him employed!

But enough about me. What are your weekend plans? If I were here I'd probably head over to Saline Summerfest, check out one of our favorite parks or possibly, maybe sit and relax. (r-i-g-h-t) For those of you looking for something to do though, here is the weekend summer events round-up for your planning needs. Enjoy!
