do something : weekend jan. 21 - 22

winter here in cleveland really makes me just want to hibernate.  if i didn't have kids to force me to get out of the house then i probably would be at home until spring (i really don't like this below 30 degree weather!).

but just because it's cold outside doesn't mean there isn't anything to do in town.  here are a few things going on around town this weekend:

1.21.2011

cleveland metroparks is having a movie night at their north chagrin nature center starting at 7:15 p.m.  they will be showing ice world, a movie addressing the impacts of global warming on the polar region and it's inhabitants.

speaking of cleveland metroparks, if you prefer to actually go outside then be sure to head over to the chalet for some exciting tobogganing.  aaron and ty did this last year and they had a great time.  tobogganing will be open all the way through the first weekend in march.  for $8 (or $6 children 11 and under) you can ride as many times as you want.  of course you have to climb all those stairs to the top of the chute too...

78th street studios will be having their monthly 3rd friday event from 5-9 p.m.  be sure to stop by if you've never been!

survival kit gallery (which opened in december 2010) will be having their first ever 4th coast pop up market friday 5-11 p.m. and saturday 12-6 p.m.  the gallery is actually located in the 78th street studios and the pop up market will be open friday in conjunction with 78th street studios' 3rd friday event.  and to top it off, umami moto will be offering up some of their delightful asian cuisine in case you get hungry.

get your polka fix with dj kishka at the happy dog from 6-9 p.m.  feel free to dance and show others your sweet moves.  then replenish the energy you burned dancing with a deeelicious dog.  hey now!

1.22.2011

the beck center will be having their monthly super saturday event for kiddos 10 and under.  this free event runs from 9-11:30 a.m.  this month, make a 2011 calendar with the cleveland artists foundation.

while we're in lakewood, the lakewood library will be having a movie night featuring alfred hitchcock's spellbound.  movie begins at 6 p.m. in their main auditorium.  i used to love watching alfred hitchcock films.  that and the old twilight zone films.

stay warm and happy weekend!
