doing "things"

[Suesumba]

so from reading the "non-negotiable" thread, i find that "doing things" is a must.

question: how much things you can do in this just and great society that doesn't call for a bag of money? just free things. the last concert i went to cost $300 for two people.

i really can't justify that money. there are clubs where you "pay what you can" but the liquor is pushed pretty hard.

how do you "do things" without spending a lot of money?

Re: doing "things"

...fishing, snowshoeing, kite flying, drink coffee at clubs, penny slots at the casino, potlucks and BBq's wid frens, spelunking old mines,caves and ruins, $14 for a day at Ojo Caliente springs, or free at stagecoach hotsprings down by the river, arrowhead hunting.... Cruisin galleries and museums for more "cultured" peeple. Watching free "streaming videos", and Rockford files reruns on the computer...old black and white classics. Taking in the ceremonial dancing at the pueblo (about 5 a year). Sweat lodges. Free concerts at the plaza on every thursday all summer. Car shows, craft fairs, etc. Quite a few people here get by with very little. They have to.

Thankfully, I live in a area, where there are loads a free things to do. Yeah, we have our fair share of things that you almost have to commit robbery to afford them, but....

1. Parks are awesome (requires physical activity)
2. Just about all of our museums are free here
3. Zoo, also free.
4. Theatre groups are very cheap (because they have to compete with the professional ones that come through).
5. beaches, creeks and watersheds....for long walks and other water activities.

also alot of couples think that if they arent spending money...then they cant &quot;do stuff&quot;.

I wouldn't pay that kind of money to see anybody. I used to go to shows all the time, and they would have about 4 groups no more than $50.00 per person. I would do a comedy show more so than a musical one.

* These things are for warm weather, I'm not trying to do any of those in the cold. I can't think of anything besides staying at home for free when it's cold outside.

Re: doing &quot;things&quot;

I undertstand what you mean by not going out when its cold but you can be creative inside too.

Indoor movies are my favorite Just press the &quot; on demand&quot; and we are cuddling up to a movie.

My other favorite is a cook off.. Yep. Wi challenge wan aneda who can do di bess Fish ..oxtail .. roast chicken - whatever. So sometimes wi plan a cook off challenge. The best part it wi get fi partake in the feast aftawods

And like ILP sey in the DC area dem have nuff free tings fi do. Mi also love hang out in the B'more harbour or drive cross the bay go tek in some scenes.

Neda ting is board games wid wan bag a trash talking.

Den dere is what RC sey
