Arts & Culture
You've never been anywhere quite like this, it'll cost you a few bucks to be entertained, and it's (once again!), only a few blocks away! Friendly and kind local artist/owner John Preble sometimes pretends to be a curmudgeon. If he happens to be there while you're visiting, go on and chat a bit and find yourself somewhat charmed, whether he likes it or not.

Entertainment & Activities
Budget a 20 minute drive to get there and arrive 15 minutes before your show so that you can enjoy mediocre-to-pretty-good food served at your seat. A full eats menu, a decent beer/wine/cocktail menu, and mainstream films. If there's a blockbuster you've been wanting to see, why not go all the way? ;p
