Summer of Fun

Every spring, I say the same thing to myself. What is it? I always remark, “This will be the summer of fun! I just love summer- it’s my favorite season. But let’s be honest, I say that about every time of year.

Every summer, I went to camp with my very childhood best friend. I was happier than a clam going to day camp and coming home in the evening to eat dinner with my parents and shower in my own bathroom. As I got older, I would eventually become a counselor at the same day camp where I taught canoeing. No sleep-a-way camp for me!

Now as an adult living in the city, summer no longer means day camp and vacation with my parents. It translates to outdoor patios, Summer Fridays, festivals, and long walks along the lake.

This spring, one of my closest friends and I joked about making a sharable Google calendar of fun things to do this summer. Our hope is to collaborate and share as many great ideas with each other as possible. There will be no room to be bored this summer. I plan on spending my summer by bbq-ing and exploring new neighborhoods. I also plan on having the best summer ever.

What do you plan to do this summer?
