A little drag, a musical & a mural

COVINGTON, Ky. – After weekends of more events than we (or our little keyboard-pecking-fingers) could believe, life during the first weekend in November seems to have slowed down a wee bit.

Heartless Bastards & Schitt’s Creek

COVINGTON, Ky. – Ah, that ever-so-slight coolness in the air – if summer must come to an end, let it play out with a subtle dip in temps and a paintbrush swipe of crimson and gold across a canopy of trees.   That’s the kind of segue into fall that makes you want to get outside and do something.   So … how about: An outdoor movie … free family p...
