Making the Most of the Summer Season

As you scroll through social media and look at images of summer, you may have felt some feelings that you have missed out on some fun. Here is your reminder that however you are spending your summer is a-ok! There is still time left to enjoy the season and soak up the long summer days.

Ready for Some Fun

Carve out some time for some fun. I have 5 recommendations for things to do this summer that are simple and enjoyable.

  1. Watch the sunrise - There’s really nothing like starting your day watching the sunrise. It’s quiet, calm and beautiful.

  2. Explore where you live - Become a tourist in your own city. Is there a restaurant you have been wanting to try? How about exploring a museum? Stop by the visitor center to find out about special events.

  3. Host an outdoor movie night - Select a fun summer movie to show and project it on a white sheet or a washable movie screen. If you do not have a projector, check with your local library, they may have one available to rent. Serve light snacks and drinks and it will be a fun night for all!

  4. Listen to the music - Make a summer playlist that is filled with all of your favorite songs.

  5. Go for a drive - Choose a scenic route and hit the road. A day trip might just be what you need for a little change of scenery. Pack a picnic to enjoy along the way.

It doesn’t matter what anyone else is doing, it just matters that you are happy and are enjoying summer just how you’d like to. Take it easy, slow down and appreciate the season.
