Well, it’s hot…correct that, it was hot last week at 100 degrees, now it’s over the top at 105 degrees for the next 3 days. Sounds like a good excuse to think cool thoughts while driving down to Dallas Market Hall for the Dallas Pool, Spa and Backyard Living Show.
We have no idea how big of a show this is, but anything involving water is a nice option these days. So if you’ve been thinking about getting a pool, a spa, or even a little duckie pond you might want to check this one out. Friday through Sunday only. Admission and Parking are free.

The Blue Goose Cantina chain has opened their newest restaurant in the Shops of Highland Village, across the street from the AMC Theater. We dropped in for lunch recently to check it out on a busy Saturday. Walking into the fourth of the local chain’s locations, we found it, like the original location in Lower Greenville, already full of Blue Goose faithfuls. Their patio on the east (Shady) side of the restaurant is a great place to sit and enjoy a refreshing cold beverage of choice and watch the kids play in the run-through fountain.
