Our budget includes a category for entertainment. Most of our expenses are for cable TV. We also count going out for a nice meal and movie tickets in this line item.
Last night I enjoyed an evening with a friend. We enjoyed a fast food burger together on our way to a play. An evening costing less than $20.
There's a children theater group in the county that puts on 4 or 5 plays a year. One boy from our church has been involved in the productions for 2 years now. I enjoy seeing the plays and appreciate all the hours of work and dedication of parents.
Last night's play was Godspell. One set and about 85 students (grade school through high school) singing, dancing, and speaking. Great job.
I share this as an example of a fine evening of entertainment with modest costs. Check your local arts section of the newspaper. There are many options you will find rewarding and entertaining.
Many communities have museums, local colleges, and even bus excursions to take in a play. This is a great season to enjoy indoor culturally enriching events.
'til later
