This Houston weekend is filled with enough social activities and fun things to do that you'll have a glide in your stride, a deep in your hip and smile as wide as the Rio Grand on your face all week.
It's definitely the time to hit the parks. At Hermann Park and in Downtown Houston at Discovery Green, you'll find exciting outdoor activities . The list of what's happening in and around Midtown Houston Saturday and Sunday will make it rewarding for you to get out of that house robe and into some shorts and a T-shirt, for those of us who avoided becoming roadwarriors this holiday weekend.
