Downtown Dave is going to make you want to come to the Bay this weekend. Here’s where we think you should stay!

Downtown Dave’s Thought(s) For The Week

This is Halfway to Saint Pattys day weekend. Here on Put in Bay being that we are not open 12 months out of the year we have to improvise with our holidays. That is why we have halfway to St Pattys day. We also have summer New Years eve coming up next weekend.

Some thoughts to share this week.

Make sure you read each one and maybe even reread and then think.

Don’t cry over anyone who won’t cry with you
Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave and impossible to forget
Don’t let the past hold you back, you’re missing the good stuff
Life is short. If you don’t stop every so often you might miss it
A best friend is like a 4 leaf clover. Hard to find and lucky to have
True friendship never ends. Friends are forever
Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them
Good friends are like stars. You don’t always see them but you know they are always there.

Don’t frown. You never know who is falling in love with your smile.
The hardest thing to do is to watch the one you love, love somebody else.
Best friends are the siblings that God forgot to give us.

Last thought and the best one to really think about
Remember, every minute spent angry or mad is sixty seconds of happiness wasted.

You only have 6 more weekends to visit my happy place Put in Bay. It is not as crowded and every band I listed playing this weekend is really good. So stop up and relax and make Put in Bay your happy place.
