Jazzin' on the Pride
Thursday evening, some friends and I went to check out a new event called Jazzin' on the Pride.
From 5 to 9 p.m. each Thursday, you can enjoy live jazz music, a full cash bar and free snacks and wings on the Pride of the Susquehanna riverboat.
This is an awesome option for folks who are fond of hanging out on the waterside decks of places like The Waterway in York and Duke's in Wormleysburg.
The boat stays docked at Front & Locust streets on the Harrisburg side of the river for the duration of the event, so people can come and go as they please. Best of all, it's all free (except any drinks you buy at the bar).
Since it's so new...
...and there were less than two dozen of us on the boat Thursday evening, the captain asked if we'd like to go out for a half-hour cruise.
For nearly 45 minutes, we trolled up and down the river, under the many bridges, taking in the sights and listening to a recording that filled us in on the history of the river, the riverboat and the city.
The sun was low in the sky, the breeze was great, and a gaggle of geese swam past the dock. Super relaxing.
