Weekend Brings Thinking Day, Arts Festival and BabyFest

You made it to the weekend, now what? Patch found events happening March 8-10.

Editor's note: an earlier version of this article incorrectly stated the end time for the Encinitas Arts Festival. It ends at 2 p.m.

Do your weekend plans include sitting inside or beating the rainy blues and getting outside?

Patch found activities for you to explore and enjoy all over North County.

Grab a few more boxes of Girls Scouts Cookies at their annual event in Oceanside or listen to a spring concert in Carlsbad.

Of course women don't have the same standing as men, they don't have the same hardware either. ButRead More they do have considerably more responsibility in our society. They are the ones who have the responsibilty and the honor of bringing new life into the world. And caring for and nurturing the babies and small children. Men can't do this, no matter how hard they try to act like women. Can you imagine a fella giving birth? Believe me, a fella couldn't take it. Can you imagine a fella breast feeding a baby? You have got to be kidding! Can you just imagine the jacked-up mess we'd be in if men had to do all this by themselves? We'd be extinct by now that's for sure!
