Clip-clopping into the weekend, with dash and style, is something plenty of Southern Californians do, even if they're not actually rocking a cowboy hat, spurs, and oodles of fabulous fringe.
That weekly clip-clop often begins on Thursday evenings for many revelers, the people looking to incorporate a bit of weekend-style spirit into the day just ahead of Friday.
The Autry Museum of the American West has long helped locals find a bit of that easygoing joy on a Thursday night; the destination's "Sizzling Summer Nights" series has become a time-honored way to tap a toe before the weekend officially begins.
