A weekend without a good football game after a week of rain? Do not despair. There’s plenty enough to do around here and, if you play your cards right, you’ll get to Monday good and tired.

National Pie Day is right here, the NFL playoffs are winding down, the Elephant Man is coming to Wimberley and, of course, there’s music all over San Marcos this weekend.

Maybe the world slows down a bit a week before Christmas, but we’ve still got commencements, shopping, music and lights for the weekend in San Marcos

Cranberries, probably a part of your Thanksgiving dinner, are one of the few fruits native to North America. They are as indigenous to the northeast as music is here in San Marcos. There’s plenty of music here this weekend, too, and lots more. Herewith, a few suggestions.

Carnivals, music, bingo, plays, music, football, soccer, volleyball, a fried chicken dinner, and more music await the happy weekend warrior.
