explore lubbock

when we moved to back to lubbock, it became "home"....again. i was determined to experience all that lubbock has to offer. according to the "it's official" post, i already had an idea of things i wanted to enjoy and explore.
* rosa's-check, check, check

* a DQ that is in walking distance and OPEN-check
* date nights-check...but we need more of them :)
* science spectrum-check
* joyland-check

* tailgating-check?

things that have not been checked-off:

* carol of lights
