This years history study is the medieval and renaissance period. With that in mind we headed to Market Square for the Shakespeare on the Square event. We, being the boys and myself. Grace was spending the day with her youth group and Frederick was working. It was a great evening. There was a wonderful breeze, several good friends to keep us company, and Italian Ice from Rita's! Fun, Fun, Fun.
The play (if you can call it that) was rather funny and the actors were quite entertaining. Unfortunately, the humor was lost on my boys and at times was somewhat risque. Shame really, because it could have been a much more family friendly production.
Overall, I really enjoyed the evening. I love being downtown. The Market Square, Old City, Tennessee Theatre, the Bijou, and so much more intrigue me. I remember eating at the old S&S Cafeteria, getting milkshakes at the drug store on the corner, shopping at Miller's (remember that place?), and going to see the Nut Cracker at the Theatre as a child. I love history and I always feel that I am able to grasp just a taste of the past when I am down town.
