Howdy, y’all! I hear we’re expecting another cold front this weekend, plus some rain chances, too. Sounds about right for April in SA. But that doesn’t mean we’re staying in. Oh no, sirree. There’s way too many shows to spend way too much on merch at, not to mention pre-Fiesta events and all kinds of sports going on at the local, collegiate, and professional levels. Take your pick!
