Enjoy the Last Days of Summer!

Catch a free movie outside!
As summer winds down and the beginning of a new school year approaches, it’s time to get outside and soak up the last days of summer in August! I try to spend as much time outside in the summer as I possibly can.
Here are some fun outdoor ideas:
- Invite friends over for an end of summer BBQ – Fire up the grill and make burgers, hot dogs, and other BBQ staples like corn (also great on the grill!), coleslaw, salad, etc. etc. Or make it potluck style and have friends bring their own cookout favorites. You could even keep the fire going and make s’mores at the end of dinner. Yum!
- Spend a lazy weekend day lounging at the pool- make sure to pack some books, magazines, or music (and of course some sun block!)
- Check out local outdoor concerts or music festivals; also check to see if there are any outdoor movie screenings, which are usually free!
- Go for a run with a buddy or by yourself- it’s a great way to clear your mind and get some good exercise. In the hot summer months you’ll want to stick to early morning or evening to avoid the hottest part of the day
- Organize a game of kickball or softball with friends
Of course, there are endless (not to mention free, or at least very cheap) ways to get outside and catch the last days of summer, so get creative!
