Movie Night

Last night was movie night, and the best kind - outdoors! One of the small city parks, Huizenga Plaza (aka Bubier Park) periodically presents Maroone Moonlight Movie Night. So we threw on our backpack-style beach chairs with a cooler and some pre-popped popcorn and hoofed it the two blocks to the park to sit in the grass, under the stars to watch "To Kill a Mockingbird". This year's theme was "the classics" so all the movies were classic black & white films.

I needed it. Earlier in the day we got stuck in high-season traffic creeping down A1A trying to take the scenic route from Boca to Ft Lauderdale. I started to get that crowd-claustrophia feeling with all the cars, new high-rise construction, and people. I needed that small-town feeling reminiscent of Ft Collins. Having the ability to walk to an outdoor-movie was the remedy.
