Photo courtesy of ARAcontent February 14 is the universal day of love. But what should one get the object of their desire, or obsession, on this Valentine’s Day?

Well, many will undoubtedly rush to buy cards, candy, jewelry and other “stuff.” But some, those who are more adept at success in the arena of romance, know that it is not “stuff” they desire.

Gifts are nice, but the greatest of them all is time spent together. So, this year, leave the teddy bear on the shelf and treat yourself and your true love to a day of fun spent together.

Here are a couple of suggestions for local V-Day events:
