You know I love writing about St. Augustine events almost as much as I love going to them. I think I’m going to have to do some “optimizing” to make it easier to find those kind of posts, because my category system is a mess.

Anyway, the last Saturday night in each month is now Uptown Saturday Night, an event put on in St. Augustine that features street music, antiques shopping, book signing, art galleries, and exhibits in a party-like atmosphere along San Marco Avenue. Each of the participating shops features an open house with refreshments. Free parking is provided at the Mission of Nombre de Dios, one of my favorite spots for peaceful relaxing (don’t worry, the parking lot is away from the peaceful relaxing!).

According to their schedule, Uptown Saturday Night is scheduled out through 2008, so mark the last Saturday of each month on your calendar and plan to attend from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. The next event is November 24th, and you know you’ll be looking to get out of the house in the middle of the long Thanksgiving weekend (with or without those pesky visitors from up north… or maybe you’re one of those pesky visitors – sorry!). St. Augustine has tons of interesting and unique restaurants and places to get adult beverages, so this will make a for a great night out.
