Oktoberfest is always a fun celebration in Addison TX.  Tons of food and music and entertainment for the entire family.  Yes, this started yesterday, but being a Thursday, I didn't announce it.  Friday and Saturday are usually the best days to go, and even though it was free on Thursday, admission is only $5. There are going to be many roads closed due to the high influx of traffic and such, so you might want to look at this page first to make sure you don't end up in circles trying to find your way around on closed roads. Come early, stay late, drink some good, WARM, imported beer... be safe!

Right downstairs from The Melting Pot restaurant at 4900 Belt Line Road in Addison Texas, and due north of the Thai Orchid, there is a brand new Dunkin' Donuts location! And it's now open! (The photos were taken yesterday.) I've never been a Crispy Creme fan, but give me a DD bavarian creme donut and I'll be your friend for life!

You've heard of the "dog days of summer" but now the Town of Addison is putting a twist on the phrase. The outdoor pool at the Addison Athletic Club is scheduled to close (for humans) on September 1st.  However, the first annual doggy dip day will be held on Saturday morning, September 20th, from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. If you are an Addison resident with a membership card to the AAC (one-time $10 fee for as long as you live in town), come out and support the dogs! All participating dogs must have a 2007 or 2008 rabies tag or proof of vaccination. The fee is $5 per dog. Humans will not be allowed to swim.

Beat the Heat in Addison, Texas! Of course Addison has all the usual ways to beat the heat with water, but there are other ways in town to stay cool, too. The obligatory water sources include both the indoor and outdoor pools at the Addison Athletic Club, where any Addison resident can become a member for a one-time $10 fee that is good for as long as the resident lives in the city.   You can watch the ducks and swans float along in the man-made lake in the Les Lacs subdivision.         Or enjoy the many fountains throughout Addison, such as the one on Beltline Road at Winwood where the gazebo is frequently the setting for bridal pictures; or the fountains and shallow pools at Addison Circle, home of the massive Blueprints sculpture. If you want to stay dry and cool: Visit Addison Squar...
