Summertime Shout-outs!
It is officially Summer! Not too big a deal in California- where I am from. We've basically only got two seasons: Summer, (which others call "Spring," "Summer," and "Fall"), and Summer, Jr. (which others, I've heard, call "Winter"). But nonetheless, I was thinking today about what exactly I enjoy about California Summers. Not surprisingly, I love going to the beach (kind of obvious, I know), but I also love camping at the beach, riding bikes at the beach, having bonfires at the beach, and, ummmm, almost anything that can be done at a beach.
I was also thinking today, "I wonder what people in other places do for fun in the Summer?" Seriously! So, I thought I'd post it here, in the hopes that people from all over can give a Summertime Shout-out to their region, and what they all do for fun there in the Summer!
TALK — blah, blah
Gurnee, IL- lots and lots of bonfires, and beach-ing (though no ocean- just Lake MI). There's also camping- but we tend to go to WI for that. Other than that its forest preserves, Botanic Gardens, outdoor movies- anything to get us outside after the long/dreadful winter
