Mount Saint Francis Picnic to rock Floyds Knobs [Southern Indiana]
Cars on adjacent US Highway 150 are usually the loudest noises heard around Mount Saint Francis, home of the Conventual Franciscan province of Our Lady of Consolation. On Saturday, many of those cars will be turning into the drive and parking in the fields, as the friars of "The Mount" host their annual picnic.
St. Anthony's Picnic heating up in Clarksville [Southern Indiana]
For those looking for something to do other than Hullabalou, St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Clarksville will hold its Parish Picnic Friday and Saturday.
Booths, live music, beer, raffles, crafts, and a chicken dinner are among the highlights to the annual event.
In the interest of full disclosure, this writer will be pouring beer in the air-conditioned comfort of the gambling area (also known as the school gymnasium) on Friday evening and will be proudly flouring pound after pound of chicken on Saturday morning and afternoon.
A Day for Alcohol [Southern Indiana]
There's a lot more than three reasons to cross the river this weekend - if you are a lover of the libations, that is. You see, this Saturday, Indiana is host to an alcoholic's wonderland. One could make a driving tour of it. Just be sure to find a designated driver. And a time machine or some sort of teleporter wouldn't hurt, either. These events are all on Saturday and all looks spectacular.
Art on the Parish Green [Southern Indiana]
Did you notice the beautiful bowl and plate photographed above? Those are MINE.
Do you know where I got them? An ART FAIR.
Want some beautiful dishes of your own? How about a painting? Artsy clothes or jewelry? Lawn ornaments? Then go to Art on the Parish Green this weekend.
