Stuck at the office and need a little breathing room? While you may not be able to travel to the outskirts of town for an escape to nature, you can always head to the centrally located Brantley Hinshaw Park and sit on one of the benches or stroll one of the walking paths to clear your head while you take in some outdoor beauty. This park is also a great place to relax after work, too, as the family will enjoy the playgrounds, basketball court, spray pool and great scenery. Also, there is ample lighting if your family outing goes a little past sunset.

If you love the theater but hate the crowds, you'll absolutely love taking in a performance at Theatre Arlington. This venue offers highly personal theatrical experience, as there are only 200 seats in this quaint little theater that make every performance an intimate affair. On-stage entertainment ranges from excellent family fare to provocative adults-only productions, but either way, you won't miss a minute of the drama that will unfold right before your eyes.
