Hope Springs
Rating: PG-13
Stars: Meryl Streep, Tommy Lee Jones, Steve Carell, Jean Smart
Summary: After thirty years of marriage, a middle-aged couple attends an intense, week-long counseling session to work on their relationship. 'Hope Springs' reminds us of 'It's Complicated' in a fun,realistic way. I loved Meryl Streep with Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin, let's see how she does with another one of my favorites: Tommy Lee Jones.

Summary: In order to gain influence over their North Carolina district, two CEOs seize an opportunity to oust long-term congressman Cam Brady by putting up a rival candidate. Their man: naive Marty Huggins, director of the local Tourism Center.

Here's something interesting to do this weekend if you can spare the cash-- Catch a breeze on the river as you catch a ride on The Spirit of the Red River cruise!

The Spirit of the Red is a 35 passenger boat with many windows for your viewing pleasure. If you would like to enjoy the scenic view from outside, it offers a spacious observation deck. The Spirit of the Red is also U.S. Coast Guard certified.

Cross Bayou and the Red River have become a habitat for several species of wildlife. The alligator, blue heron, white egret, kingfisher, sea gulls and various types of snakes and turtles, all dwell along the banks of these two bodies of water. This area has turned into a popular fishing area for bass, crappie, bream and catfish. Fried catfish is an area speciality.

Along this tour you will encounter several different bridges and even for some local people this piece of history is used and seen daily but the history behind them remains a mystery.
