KidsTowne Playground

I found out about KidsTowne Playground in Apex last year at the Kids Together playground (at what was recently renamed Marla Dorrel Park) in Cary. I'd struck up a conversation with a dad, who was there with his daughter. He said he liked Kids Together, but loved KidsTowne even more.

Wild and Crazy Days

The last time my husband went out of town on business, I plugged some romantic comedies from Blockbuster into the VCR. So, no, my husband doesn't travel for business a lot.

Hot Wiggles News

Just in from The Wiggles people: Apparently the Aug. 22 show at the RBC Center is selling so well that they're adding a second show (and a much better time for preschoolers if you ask me).

You might have noticed Serena's Song, the world's first wheelchair accessible hot air balloon, getting some prominent play this week in the TriangleMom2Mom calendar. This is the fourth year the balloon has stopped in North Raleigh and it may be the last time. Gary Waldman, the man in charge, says the cost of gas and propane is so high that he's not sure he can afford to take it around the countr…
