Looking for something fun and out-of-the-ordinary to do this weekend in Spring? Put on your best pair of boots and head down to Big Texas Saloon, a traditional Texan dance hall featuring live music and dancing all night long. The popular bar features live country and rock n’ roll music from local acts and nationally touring musicians, as well as other fun seasonal events, like the Halloween Costume Contest.

The dance floor is always filled with people two-stepping to the music, but if you currently have two left feet, Big Texas Saloon also offers Texan dancing lessons that will make you feel like a local in no time. Learn how to do the two-step or the polka at these fun, all-ages lessons, and then show off your dancing skills during the next big night out at Big Texas Saloon.

The change from winter to spring is typically accompanied by a desire to have a bright, clean home. You're tired of the dingy, cold effects of winter snow and ice, and everything just feels a bit less than fresh. If you’re planning a spring cleaning routine but don’t know where to begin, these seven tips will help you get started.

• Set all clocks ahead one hour for Daylight Savings Time.
• Change the batteries in things like smoke detectors, remote controls, and alarm clocks.
• Flip or rotate your mattress to ensure that it lasts for years to come.
• Protect hardwood floors against scratches by adding padded, adhesive discs to the legs of chairs and tables.
• Clean the refrigerator using a few teaspoons of baking soda diluted in hot water. Also be sure to toss out expired or unused food items.
• Wash pillows to prevent seasonal allergens common in the springtime from accumulating inside.
• Re-stock cleaning supplies to prepare yourself for any number of household messes and spills that come with the spring season.
