Wilmette Weekend: End of August

Boring. Not much of a weekend for ideas. From a weather standpoint, this weekend doesn't look like it's going to be a winner. Maybe check out Site 59 for a very, very last minute getaway. You could book there up to an hour before leaving, so just pack, pick and head off to O'Hare. Otherwise, you could finally use that beach pass you bought if the weather improves. Get the kids ready for school. Visit the French Market.

You could just spend the weekend cleaning and organizing. There are plenty of tips on better ways how to do that at eHow. Or you could even check out Martha Stewart.

With Labor Day next weekend, its a good time to straighten up the yard and the house. If you don't have plans for next weekend yet, at least you will be able to invite someone over!

Upcoming: Wilmette will be participating in two webwide projects by bloggers. The first, Blog Day, is August 30. We'll be introducing 5 blogs that are likely very different from what you usually read. The second is a webwide tribute to the individuals killed on September 11, 2001. So stay tuned!
