Thursday: Last nights recap and todays adventures too! at 9:18 AM Wow was last night AMAZING. I went to the basement to check out "we are the willows" and was blown away. Not only is this feller as polite as daises but he has a unique voice that well, you just have to hear. The best i can do is to say his voice is a cross between a singing coyote and a siren ( the mermaid kind that is). Stay tuned for my full review later today/tonight! In the meantime check out his tour diary and website for tunes. After the show i headed over to the Sand Trap for some Karaoke with my good pal chelsi, her always entertaining hubby and their lovely friend Jordan who's voice is Amazing. It was loads of fun, there was lots of dancing involved and as usual the cheezy fries were finger lickin' good.Come on folks, there is a lot of amazing stuff happening here in Ogden, ya just have to go. Who knows, you make a new friend. So if you are feeling up for an adventure today come out of the woodwork and head out to one of these: 8:30am – 3:30pm Wild Things - Ogden Nature Center, 966 W. 12th Street, Ogden, UT 84404 9:00am – 12:00pm Fledglings: Animal Explorers - Insects Inside Out - Ogden Nature Center, 966 W. 12th Street, Ogden, UT 84404 9:00am – 12:00pm Mad Science Camp: Crazy Chemworks - Eccles Community Art Center, 2580 Jefferson Avenue, Ogden, Utah 84401 7:00pm – 9:00pm Intermediate Digital Photography - Pleasant Valley Branch Library, 5568 Adams Avenue, Ogden, UT 84405 7:00pm – 10:00pm Matt Flinner Trio Outdoor Summer Concert - Ogden Nature Center, 966 W. 12th Street , Ogden, Utah 7:00pm – 10:00pm WINDSOR DRIVE @ Mojos - Mojos Ogden, 2210 Washington BLVD, Ogden, UT 9:00pm-12:00am At Teazers In Ogden -I Love The 1990's Hip Hop Party plus Karaoke- Teazers Club Insomnia Private Club, 366 36th Street, Ogden, UT Labels: events in ogden utah, family friendly ogden utah, free events in ogden, free summer events ogden, karaoke in utah, mojos, sandtrap, we are the willows ‹Older Tuesday, June 28, 2011
Hand made in ogden and today's events at 10:34 AM Did anyone else get to see the movie in the Ogden amphitheater last night? It was fun, and crowded, and loud but mostly fun. The kids ACTUALLY paid attention to the movie ( because it was friggin hilarious!) and at the end they all got up and danced. Have i mentioned lately that i love Ogden? Well, if you haven't gathered that from this blog then ...I LOVE OGDEN! Today i asked my blogger friend and Ogden local Liv Taylor to do a little guest blog post on finding locally made treasures here in Ogden. Here are her recommendations CHECK IT OUT! You can find her at http://livwrites.com and http://livytay.etsy.com. *************************************************************************** Last summer I was extremely pregnant, working full-time and basically just too lazy and tired to visit the Farmer's Market. This summer I'm totally hitting it up. It's just one of the many awesome things about Ogden I have yet to experience and feel like I'm missing! It opens on 25th Street July 9 (Saturdays from 8am-1pm), and you'll find all sorts of vendors ranging from fresh, organic produce to artwork and hand-made jewelry. The Market will run through September, so you'll have plenty of opportunities to browse what the local talent has to offer. Being a bit of a jewelry maker myself, I'm always looking for supplies that are unique and memorable. I find a lot on Etsy, which is another venue for artisans to sell their wares or simply the supplies needed for your own crafts. One local Ogden-based Etsy seller, Silver fir farms, Prints has vintage or modern styled prints that can even be personalized for your little one. There are also a lot of shops in Ogden that sell art/jewelry/accessories on consignment. You can find beautiful pieces Borrowed Earth Emporium (2242 Washington Blvd), Upscale Resale (2262 Washington Blvd) and ume Boutique (186 25th Street). If you'd like to take a drive through the 12th Street canyon, you can also find local painters' art at the Grey Cliff Lodge, where you can grab a bite to eat while nestled into the mountain side. I'm sure there are other great places to find unique supplies, or ready-made items for yourself and home, and that's where you come in. Where have you found awesome, local talent? *************************************************************************  Today's events:Adventures in art camp: Artist, Annette Orrock will offer Adventures in Art Camp at the Eccles Community Art Center, 2580 Jefferson Avenue, Ogden for those ages 8 through adult on Monday through Wednesday, June 27 through 29, 2011 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuition: $80 includes supplies.
