We started out at a place called "Maltitude" - you can purchase a bunch of local and craft beers. They also have a machine that if you like a beer they can make you a single can of it to go. This is the tasting. They even have a homemade root beer that they said was actually pretty tasty.
We ate dinner at the Mexican restaurant downtown called "The Cantina" after we left the music really started to play. They close off a block of down town so that people can mill around and sit in their chair in the street. All of the restaurants have outdoor seating as well. You can walk around with your drinks on this night only.
They don't allow big coolers to come in (but you can leave them in your car and walk back and forth should you not want to purchase from the vendors - or as you can see next to the one lady she has a small cooler bag.
We found an unoccupied bench which is where we sat and talked and listened to the music. It was a great mix of new and old country music.
I tried to get a picture of the whole stage (which stays up year round) but that tree kept getting in my way! It was SUCH a beautiful night that night too. Not too hot and it had a light breeze. It was so enjoyable to be outside!
This guy was painting faces and then he had a HUGE bubble wand he was using and the kids would run up and pop.
It's also VERY dog friendly. These little puppies were the cutest things. Even with all the commotion and people stopping to pet them they stayed near their owner and didn't make a peep.
If you are ever in the Columbus area I would totally suggest you take a trip to our downtown, it's right on the Chattahoochee River and you can go white water rafting down it, catch a show at the "River Center", dine to your hearts content and just enjoy the view.
