Canada: Sault Ste Marie, Ontario – Bears Videotaping Cubs Fishing
Someone in Sault Ste. Marie has a great sense of humor. We loved the statue of the adult bear with a camcorder on his shoulder videotaping two cubs. It’s down by the waterfront in Dr. Roberta Bondar park.
US: Wilmington, DE – This Sunday, How about Brunch and a Drag Show?
Looking for something completely different to do on a Sunday, tired of the same old, same old…how about brunch and a drag show? Join a fabulous all-star cast of Drag Queens for a Drag Diva Brunch. The hysterical all-ages drag brunch takes place Sundays at noon at The Queen Wilmington.
Each general admission ticket includes not only the hilariously entertaining show but also your entree and first mimosa or Bloody Mary (21+ only for alcohol).
Seating begins at noon and while you are being seated the cast of queens will mingle with you making sure you are ready to have a great time. The show starts at 1 pm and runs about 90 minutes. Each show has about 11 performances of pure fabulousness.
Although the Drag Diva Brunch is appropriate for all ages, keep in mind that it’s a Drag Show. The show is described as fun and flirty. The emcees occasionally use adult humor and language, sometimes naughty, but the show is never raunchy, and always fun.
Get ready to have the most amusing and entertaining time at brunch you’ll ever have. The shows feel like a big party and everyone is invited in on the fun.

US: Savannah, GA – This Exhibit in Savannah is Going to the Dogs
William Wegman (American, b. 1943) is an internationally-renowned artist with a prolific career spanning five decades. He is well known for his photographs of his beloved Weimaraners, a collaboration that began with his dog, Man Ray, in Los Angeles in 1970.
The exhibition of William Wegman: Improved Photographs at Telfair Museums – Jepson Center for the Arts highlights his use of humor to find unexpected and surprising ideas within everyday objects and scenarios. So much fun to see the dogs all dressed up or in unusual poses all done with incredible artistry.
Included in the exhibition are drawings, paintings, altered photographs, 20 x 24 inch Polaroids and a selection of early videos from the 1970s to present day. Across all these media, Wegman demonstrates a continual interest in working and reworking his imagery, thus “improving” it with his particular sense of logic and play.
On August 5th, 1 – 4pm, is William Wegman Free Family Day at the gallery. Say goodbye to the “dog days” of summer and kick off the start of the school year with a family day devoted to the art of William Wegman. Participate in gallery activities, make your own altered photos and postcards, and find out more about Savannah dogs available for adoption.

US: Adirondack Northway, New York – Text Stop
Love the concept and the humor that New York State uses on the Adirondack Northway, Route 87. Signs tell you how far it is until you can safely pull over and do your texting. Breathe deeply and try to control yourself.
