"The Light Between Oceans" looks like a riviting drama to see, out Sept. 2 at Carmike Theatre, 2160 Sycamore Rd. There are also movies like "Sausage Party" and "Suicide Squad" that have been in theatres for a few weeks, but are worth seeing before they leave.
Have a barbecue

On the menu for this Monday could be burgers, chips and a variety of summer fruit — might want to get in the seasonal fruit while it is still here.
