I'm not a huge fan of the weekend before the Fourth of July. Even if there is plenty to do, it's all overshadowed by the fact that next weekend will undoubtedly be much more awesome. Still, there are plenty of things to do in Southern Indiana this weekend, so don't let my Fourth-of-July-inspired pessimism make you feel like you shouldn't leave home. Blame that on the heat.
