 Saturday: farmers market, river fun and karaoke! at 9:25 PM
Its Saturday! Ahh sweet bliss! Time to eat cotton candy in the grass and splash around in the river. I cant wait for farmers markets and bike rides and photo fun with my lovely friend jenny. We will be dressing up in pretty frocks and being completely girly...that is until we get muddy from playing on the parkway. Savor these moments folks because winter is just around the corner. Most of you might be excited for snow and cold and wet and did i mention cold? But me? I am snow inept, a snow newb if you will. I get cold easily and the idea of being wet AND cold sounds like some form of ancient torture to me. Perhaps i need an experienced snow dweller to show me how its done, until then i will continue pouting about summer ending. There is so much to do and don't forget about the amazing indie films playing right here in downtown Ogden!

Tuesday in ogden, utah at 11:19 AMI hope you all got out yesterday and enjoyed the last decent park day until the spring rains come back. I biked my tot around to the tree house museum and then up to liberty park where i got to break up a fight between two 7 year olds, school a mom on playground etiquette , and yell at some 5th graders who were screaming incredibly lewd things. Our park adventure was anything but relaxing,what happened to wholesome child's play? I still managed to lure hunter away from the tainted park and over to a grassy field by my house where we played with bubbles and giggled wildly. I'm going to miss these toddler years when she is all grown up. If anyone was at the Atilla and bullet for pretty boy show id love to get a review!

Dance till you drop for a cause at 9:51 AMMojos is one of those places i instantly feel at home. The well worn couches, the odd collection of art and the smell of coffee ooze indie cool. Ron Atencio has been putting on local shows for Ogden for years and i can often hear people reminiscing about shows way back when while milling around waiting for the bands to start. Tonight was the first show of hopefully many organized by Rick Shugarts of Rick Shoes Booking Agency based out of salt lake. Normally bands never see Ogden opting rather to play in salt lake but rick shoes saw potential in Mojos in Ogden, Utah and is bringing bigger name bands to our little town. I often hear people complain that not enough bands come through here, so here is your chance folks. Last night was amazing, an intimate show with amazing bands that you wont get to see until warp tour when a thousand people come between you and the stage. If you want Ogden's music scene to thrive, flourish and bloom then come out to the upcoming shows at Mojos! And this goes for all people of all towns, support your local venues, come with enthusiasm, dance your heart out and watch your community grow. Were in this together for the benefit of all. There are many other local venues with lots of amazing music- The basement, kamikazes, brewskis, Sandtrap, Outlaw and countless dusty basement so get out there and dance till you drop. You can find all of Ogden, Utah's local shows here on the indie Ogden blog. Check the calendar and posts for updates on all the venues!
