This past Saturday we decided to head to the Spokane County Fairgrounds to the 100 Years of Motorcycle Rally & Concert Series. I was not sure what to expect, but my husband said we would enjoy ourselves as he went to Rosalia last year for the Rally. We are by no means motorcycle people, but we do enjoy looking at the custom bikes and my husband wanted to meet Jonathan Hillstrand from the “Deadliest Catch”.

Twilight Golf at Downriver with Old Friends
I went to elementary school with my friends Geoff and Ryan and St. Thomas More Catholic School in North Spokane. With the busyness of life, we don’t get a chance to catch up much anymore, even though we all live in the same neighborhood in West Spokane, near Downriver Golf Course. So I called Geoff to see if he and Ryan would like to play some twilight golf at Downriver Golf Course. Spokane has great, affordable golf at all times, but at the end of the day, you can get a great deal on playing nine holes at area courses

Mizuna and a Movie: A Great (Vegetarian) Date in Spokane
We arrived at Mizuna (214 N Howard) and were greeted by a friendly hostess. We’d been there before, and the service is always top notch. It seems that the staff enjoys working at Mizuna, and they certainly enjoy eating there. Whenever we ask about the menu items, our server raves about the best meal they have tried recently, and gives great advice about the kitchen staff’s best new creations.
Date Night at Five Mile Pizza-Spokane
Not having very much and trying to save our money for an upcoming weekend getaway we decided to head to Five Mile Pizza for a beer and pizza date night. Five Mile Pizza is located at 6409 N. Maple Street across from the Five Mile Shopping Center. Their phone number is 328-4764
Five Mile Pizza is not only a great place to take your date, it is also very family friendly. When you walk in can place your food order and then take a seat and wait for you number to be called. We decided to order individual calzones.
Okane- Sushi to go on Spokane’s South Hill
It was a weekday evening and my husband and I wanted to go get some dinner that wasn’t the same old fast food joint. A friend at work had told me about this sushi restaurant she had gotten a to-go order from a few days before. She raved about the food so we decided to try it out. The restaurant is on the South Hill (57th & Regal) and it is called Okane on the Hill.
Manito Park and the Park Bench Cafe: A Great Summer Day in Spokane
The remainder of the afternoon was less eventful, but in a good way. Our goal was to sit in the sun, surrounded by Manito Park’s beautiful trees, and read and talk. Dave and I threw a Frisbee around a bit, and later everyone bumped a volleyball, but mostly, we just enjoyed the beautiful weather, talked, and did some reading. Manito, with its giant old trees, beautiful flower gardens, and ponds full of ducks, is a great place to go any time the weather is nice.

An Evening of Strawberry Picking at Knapp’s on Green Bluff
Green Bluff had their annual strawberry festival this year on the last weekend on June and the first weekend of July. Strawberries are my favorite fruit, but unfortunately I was unable to attend the festival on either weekend. The only chance my husband and I had to go up there was on a weekday evening and fortunately we found a grower that was open until 7pm on most weekdays- Knapp’s. We have been to this grower before to pick raspberries, so we figured it would be a good place to pick some strawberries as well.
