Cville - Hipper Than You

Fun is important, but when you can mix fun with helping a great cause, it is even more incredible. The following are events that are fun, fun for a cause, and just down right the right thing to do:
- Pepsi 10K Run to benefit Special Olympics - September 18th - literally one of the toughest 6.2 miles you can run, but also the most beautiful. Find more info here: http://pepsi10krun.com
- I'm trying to get as many people as possible to go to the polo match at King Family Vineyard on September 12th. If you can come, get directions here: http://www.roselandpolo.com
- SPCA Critter Ball - September 25th - this is one of the most fun cause events in C'ville. Be there. Details here: http://www.spcacritterball.com

Hope to see you at all of these! Party on Charlottesville!

While I have had to leave our beautiful city for at least a week each month for business, the Summer has slowly passed me by. Sure, I at least got to go tubing on the James once this season and sure, I was able to hit Fridays After Five a couple of times, and sure, I hiked Humpback Rock, but yet I still don't feel that I have been able to take advantage of the Ville in the manor that it should be taken advantage of in the best time of the year. Therefore, I have vowed to do the following before Summer is over:
Go to the C'ville City Market
Hit Chris Green Lake and Hill Top Berry Farm
Sunday polo match at King Family Vineyard
Wine Festival at Monticello - Sept. 18th

Join me, won't you? (Lots more suggestions to come.)

I love the fact that you can be a complete 'biker chick and art lover in one' in Charlottesville. So, tonight I went to the photography art exhibit at the C&O Gallery of artist David Young. He sees the most absolutely beautiful art in local rivers and creeks. You can see his incredible photographs at C&O Gallery until Sept. 26th and on his webite anytime at http://www.davidyoungphotography.net. Then, I proceeded to BW3 in Barracks Road for Biker Night, which happens each Thursday. My bud, Tim Ryalls performs and there are great deals on boneless wings. It's always a fun night, and you can always see motorcycles with great custom designs. If you are looking for an interesting and sensory exceptional night, these two events are unprecedented!

So, the amazing weekend trip to King Family Vineyard to watch polo got canceled due to the rain. While I realize we need the rain, I was so looking forward to hanging with friends, some of whom I hadn't seen in a very long time, at the very beautiful polo grounds in Crozet. Luckily, the polo matches will continue each Sunday through September. So, there should be plenty of chances to get my 'beautiful mountain view/horse/wine' fix.
