MOVIE NIGHT: BACK TO THE FUTURE PART II

Great Scott! It's finally October, y'all. It's sure as heck time again for another movie night on the courthouse lawn. Last time, we all hunkered down and watched Johnny Depp cut hair, trim hedges, and get a lap dance from a neighbor in the Tim Burton classic, Edward Scissorhands. This time out, we're hitching our wagon to Robert Zemeckis' Delorean with Back to the Future II. Get it down in your calendar ASAP. Wednesday, October 21st, we will be on the courthouse lawn - picnic regalia in tow - ready to get our movie on.

Dr. Carmen Cruz was ready for the decision and helped facilitate these marriages on the Courthouse steps, this is where we noticed her. We asked about her past, her present, and what she sees as a future for equal rights in this special WDDI edition of People of Denton.

WHAT WE DID: MAY 4TH 2015

Here's What We Did, our weekly photo recap of the past couple of days. Looks as if we spent a lot of time hanging out on or around the square. With Twilight Tunes kicking off our weekend early, we can't help but get those good summer vibes out and about. Follow that up with a Movie Night on the courthouse lawn, a Cinco de Mayo Parade, the Mudbug Boil, Free Comic Book Day, and a show from one of the best bands to ever come out of Denton, TX and you've got a pretty damned full week.
