Summer Bucket List

May 19, 2015 by jessica 9 Comments

Summer always seems to fly by and come September, I’m left wondering how I managed to squander the nicest months of the year. No more! Here’s our 2015 list of summer must-dos:

  1. Visit two new cities. (Cincinnati is already on the books for this weekend.)
  2. Play hooky for an entire midweek day to lounge at the pool…
  3. …and leave work a few hours early at least once a month in favor of pool time.
  4. Spend a day at the waterpark.
  5. Go to to a drive-in theater.
  6. Bike to a brewery or bar. (This one is going to take some practice. I haven’t been on a bike more than once in the last two years! I’d actually like to get in the habit of going on weekly bike rides with Dave after work.)
  7. Enjoy an evening at the Memorial Union Terrace.
  8. Watch the fireworks.
  9. Try five new-to-us restaurants and/or bars.
  10. Plan (and hopefully book) another trip to Europe. (This isn’t summer-specific, but I’d like to reserve something since the exchange rate is so low.)
  11. Head to a beer fest.
  12. Play mini golf.
  13. Spend a weekend in Milwaukee.
  14. Go to a baseball game.
  15. Plant an herb garden on our balcony (or, at the very least, something green).
  16. Eat cotton candy.
  17. Buy fresh produce at the farmers’ market at least once a month.
  18. Ride on a Ferris wheel.
  19. Visit my parents in northern Wisconsin.

I recently repainted the wall in our bedroom (that’s closer to a green-blue-grey IRL) and it’s serving up fall vibes with the faux maple stems that are hanging out just until our new lamps arrive.
