More twists than a rollercoaster. More drama than a teenage relationship. This is what you can expect at Upper Canada Village's murder mystery dinner by Eddie May Mysteries. My husband and I haven't had a true date night in months. Busy work schedules, volunteer commitments, events, etc. have kept us from doing anything outside of the house together, let alone a date. Thankfully, Upper Canada Village invited us to come check out their new Murder Mystery dinner. As this summer is all about …
