Weekend Planner:
Here are a few ideas for family fun this weekend...
It's time for Meridian Dairy Days! The parade is tonight at 7pm in downtown Meridian. Doug Petcash and I will be anchoring the parade coverage LIVE on 24/7. Join us for a night of fun! If you miss it, It will air again tomorrow at 6:30am, and at NOON on 24/7. Today and tomorrow you can enjoy the Dairy Days Carnival, and the Meridian Dairy and Cattle Show!
The Emmett Cherry Festival is this weekend. If you like cherries, this is your gig! The traditional Cherry Festival events, concerts and carnival all happen in the Emmett City Park through Saturday. Families gather, friends reunite and over 40,000 people get together for one of the greatest family-friendly events in Idaho.
The Payette River Experience in Garden Valley is also on the calendar this weekend! It features more than 41 events in just three days, this family-fun event is free for all. Highlights include whitewater events, trap shooting, 1K, 5K and 10K runs, mountain biking race, Dutch oven cook-off and much more.
"News to Me" by Nick McMullin
This week's "News to Me" cartoon could not be more true! Nick captured me perfectly. Getting up at 2am isn't easy, and getting ready to go on TELEVISION at that hour is no easy feat.
(What's up with the drooling tho? I sure hope I don't do that!)

Enjoy your weekend, and Happy Father's Day!
