Madison has so much to offer in the way of things to do that Scott and I often find it hard to choose. A few weeks ago though we decided to try the Hot Summer Nights Terrace Blues Fest on the Memorial Union Terrace at the University.

The Terrace is a large outdoor deck area off the student union and right on Lake Mendota.

The Terrace

We chose a beautiful Saturday afternoon. The sun was warm and there was a nice breeze. After a while we moved out of the sun so we could stay and enjoy the music longer.

Beer on the Terrace is fairly inexpensive and you must have a UW ID or buy a Union membership to purchase. We enjoyed the music for about 3 and half hours before we were ready to leave.

This is just one of the inexpensive and very enjoyable things we are finding to keep us busy on the weekend. This weekend we plan to attend the Sun Prairie Sweet Corn Festival and eat all the corn we want! - S&S
