Activity #6- Film a Wedding

I filmed a beautiful wedding this past Saturday. It doubled as a free activity because Bryce attended the wedding with me as the audio technician.

The wedding was held in the Old Sugar Mill in Clarksburg (think deliciously green grape vines, rustic wine barrels, and red brick). The couple was also very photogenic. I am very happy with the outcome! I am finishing the final touches on the wedding video this week; I will post it in this blog within the next few days.

Activity #4- Salsa Dancing

When it rains it pours (and I mean that in a good way)! I had a long, enjoyable 4 day weekend and am only know finding a few minutes to share one of the many free activities in which I participated. On Thursday night, we went salsa dancing at The Station in Roseville. It gets really crowded around 10:30, but there was plenty of room to dance after the free lessons at 9:30. With no cover on Thursdays and great music, how can you go wrong?

We forgot our camera, but I'll update with pictures the next time that we go. Dance on, everyone!

Free Activity #2-Zombie Walk

Yesterday was the 10th Annual Trash Film Orgy in Sacramento. To celebrate, hundreds of zombies marched through the streets of city. After packing a picnic dinner, we biked downtown to watch the eerie procession. It was wonderful!

Saved:

$25-$35 by packing our own lunch
$3-5 by biking instead of driving

Another biking perk was not searching for parking!
