In my journey to a life well lived and physical fitness, Nietzscheโs three steps would be a good start, especially the third which would involve turning off my television and getting off the chaise lounge [smile].ย Join me!
Continuing on last weekโs love note about drive-in theaters, just found this list of theย Paradeโs top picks from each state. I hope youโre soon enjoying movies under the stars.
