This weekend’s Rock Lottery at Dan’s ushers in ROCKtober, but it also brings a Friday the 13th that may make you superstitious types a bit leery. Not to worry, there’s always plenty to see and do, so here’s our top #DEN10 picks!

Break is over and today is actually Spring Equinox. It is officially springtime in Denton, y'all if the high eighties temperatures didn't already inform ya. Time for the season of Arts and Jazz, scary storms, gardening, and being annoyed at your neighbor mowing at 7am on a Saturday. In the pros column, though, it is also time for those colorful springtime photos.
What We Did is our weekly "slice of life" photo post featuring images that have been tagged #WDDI in the past week on Instagram.
Below are 18 photos showcasing what life has been like recently in Denton, TX. This week we see scenes from St. Patrick's Day celebrations, some spring time blooms, a Bearded Monk tattoo, and probably the best dog pic you'll see all week.
If you'd like to be included in What We Did, tag your Denton images with #WDDI on Instagram. Search the hashtag #WDDI and follow @WeDentonDoIt on Instagram to see even more great photos of Denton life.

What We Did is our weekly look into the visual captures of Denton life that people have documented on Instagram along with the hashtag #WDDI. Every week, we comb through hundreds of images to try and find a few that are not only fun photos, but also provide a great look at what was happening in the City of Denton during that week.
This week we have some photos of live music, coffee competitions, new fast food joints and plenty more.

What a difference a week makes. Take some deep breaths and manage your self-care. Get off social media and put your emotional energy into things that matter, because you know what? There is a whole world out there that's going to happen with or without you and the future of our city rests in the hands of those who will build it. Take pics and throw a #WDDI on the good ones and we might just feature you in our Monday's post, What We Did.

The 2nd annual downtown Turkey Trot is this Thursday!
THE DEN10: NOVEMBER 23rd, 2016
Thank goodness it’s Thanksgiving. We all need a break. Anytime we head home for a holiday, we're always reminded of the blog post Councilman Kevin Roden posted in 2013 dubbed Banning Politics from the Thanksgiving Table. How did we get to this place where a discussion of ideas on the direction of our country and community could be so poisonous? For a lot of us who hear "we're not going to discuss politics," our family isn't necessarily in our same bubble. To not spend that time in civil discourse with folks of differing viewpoints over good food and drink would be a shame. Turkey sucks, though. Hashtag your good photos #WDDI and tell us what your thankful for.

What a week. Supermoons, beaver moons and the kids are getting restless in the face of Thanksgiving break. We all need that break. To return home and ground ourselves in our people and accidentally eat our weight in pie. This week we’ve got a great lineup ranging from Star Wars to a very serious conversation about domestic violence in our community at North Branch Library. As always, show us your greatest hits and misses by hash tagging #WDDI and if you cut the muffin, you might just be featured in our post on Monday.
