My sister sent me a link to an article about 101 things to do in New York City.

Got me to thinking -- what would a list of "101 Things to do in the Triangle" look like?

Some people say there's nothing to do here. Is that true? Or not?

Post your ideas to create a "101 Things to do in the Triangle" and number your ideas from the previous post (if you can).

Don't use restaurants. There has to be more to do here than eat, right?

I'll start:

1. Spend Saturday at the flea market at the NC Fairgrounds.
2. See a 3D movie at the IMAX in Raleigh.
3. Go to the Farmers Market in Raleigh.

Your turn!

For those of you on Facebook, there is a page called "365 Things To Do In Raleigh" that I find very helpful!
