I think it's easy to get distracted by all the shops, especially because our culture is so commercialized. But there are a lot of fun shows out there--Matthew Gurley's magic show, Bawdily Harm, the bird sanctuary folks. There aren't as many shows as there used to be, thanks to KCRF's shit management, but there are still ways to spend a day out there without it being shop-shop-shop all the time.
That's not so easy to do with kids, though, I realize.
