Cheers to... (insert Rihanna lyrics here, you know you sang it too) Thursday and Friday!!! The end of the work week and the beginning of a great weekend. :) So if you didn't know Traverse City has a lot to offer for the last two days of the work week in free and cheap things to do. Also, you may not know that Every Thursday Bubba's in downtown TC has an All Day Happy Hour, $1.75 Well Drinks and $1 off Specialty Drinks. Sounds like a great way to begin a weekend (if you enjoy happy hour that is.)
