The Drive-In

Tyler has a fairly new really cool place to hang out with the whole family pretty inexpensively.  Skyvue Drive-In Theater on Hwy 69 North towards Tyler Pipe.
Late in the summer we got a group together and went to see Shrek 3 and Ironman 2.  We all parked near each other and left an open space for us to sit out in our lawn chairs.  Parents had blankets and pillows in their SUVs for the kiddos to play or lie down in the back.  Everyone was comfy.
This being our first time we didn't bring anything in we frequented the concession stand.  They have it all from popcorn and soda to brisket sandwiches and gummy worms.  It only costs $6 for each adult to get in to a DOUBLE FEATURE and the concession prices are not too bad.  Kids 12-5 are $4 and under 5 are FREE.  So if you need an inexpensive outing for the family this is the place.
We went again this last weekend and the weather had cooled down quite a bit (which I prefer) and we went in the convertible.  We put the top down and broke out our own beverages and sat back and enjoyed UNSTOPPABLE for the 1st feature which was AWESOME!  Well you are at the movies so popcorn was purchased before the 2nd feature of MORNING GLORY which was a very cute movie. 
Not too hot, no mosquitos, not too crowded and you can bring your own food and beverages in-I LOVE THIS PLACE.  (you can even smoke if you are so inclined as our neighbor vehicle was, we just moved up a row)  The restrooms are clean, the owners are as friendly as they get and there are no rules other than to enjoy yourself. 
Makes for a Great Date Night too (little wine, some finger foods and a blanket)
Go check out SkyVue Drive-In and catch the Double Feature of Fun!!
