Nice tips! We pack lunches and head to the park or the beach with the kids– always a good time.

Your post put a sense of urgency on me to enjoy my summer more while it still lasts, so i’ll try to squeeze in at least one more kayak trip

Celebrate the fact that the river is ALMOST warm enough to go swimming in…. and taking the beach towels and a picnic down to the river and trying to swim in it :)

Do some lazy fishing and do some reading in the sunshine tanning with a nice cold drink :)

We don’t get “warm” here on the coast very often – so tend to enjoy it at the river when it happens ! Good luck with your heat advisory over there! Whew! Our high is only expected to be 80 today and 85 tomorrow, so I think I can deal with that – but that’s my Limit!

I love all of these ideas! I happen to have all of these (except camping since I do’nt have a backyard) on my list for the remainder of summer. BBQ this weekend, hike/picnic mid next week and rereading the Twilight series to get ready for the upcoming movie!

I suppose it’s that time of year! We always wind up the summer with our church picnic, but I do want to fit in a few more park mornings, a beach day, and some more picnics, especially breakfast picnics. And a campfire in our fire pit.

And a massive but frugal shopping spree for school supplies at Walmart, with options and quantities picked out from the flyer in advance.

Thanks for reminding me!
