There’s not much rain or snow in sight, but plenty of water views to enjoy. California may be heading into a drought and that’s a bad thing. However, if you visit your local historical museum you will discover that there have been many droughts, including several that forced settlers to sell off their farms and cattle due to lack of rain. Visit a museum this weekend (some have Target free admission Sundays.) Here are some other things going on when worlds collide:
Chinese New Year
Super Bowl Marathons and Runs
Jellyfish at Aquariums
