Summer Activities

Summer is for fun, friends and new adventures! I can never wait for summer. Even though I am out of college and in the workforce I just always remember being in school and counting down the days to summer vacation. Once we were out we stayed up later, played in our front yards and tried to not hear the dreaded time to come in call. Of course, I am older when you could still play in your front yards in a small town. I miss those days but the idea lives on in me. Trips, long weekends and getting to enjoy lakes, streams and oceans. I also seem to always try some new adventure every summer.

My adventure this year is going hiking in the mountains with some friends. One of my guy friends is a big hiker and started convincing our group that we needed a hiking adventure in the mountains. So as a group we have been researching hiking trips and states to see where we want to go. I can't announce our choice yet because we haven't decided but we have narrowed it down to Colorado, Montana or the Carolinas! I loved reading about Hiking Girl's trips in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons and would love to go there one day. I have always wanted to go to Yellowstone!

My other summer adventures are going down to the Florida Panhandle in the Destin/Seaside area. I love that area and have been there many ties to enjoy the ocean and beaches.

I enjoyed this video on things to do in the summer and want to try and get a couple over since Labor Day is quickly approaching. In fact, I guess summer is almost over! That makes me sad! I still have a month of warmth that I can count on though. Hope you enjoyed post #1 and I will try and update you on what hike we choose and start coming up with ideas for next summer. I may have to talk about trips for the Holidays to keep this going so look for a Christmas/New Years trip from me. Best wishes to you and yours!
