Sunday Best: Musikfest Fireworks and Park Volleyball

Play some mini-golf, go to the zoo or the art museum, get the kids a free meal or attend church services in the area.

Sunday's National Weather Service forecast calls for sunny skies and a high temperature of 83 degrees. It's a perfect day to get outdoors and spend time with the family.
