My boyfriend and I have been trying to come up with some activities to do together. This got me thinking about summery things that would be so much fun to do before school starts again. These could be dates, hangouts with friends, or even just something you'd want to do by yourself. However you want to do it, these are some great ideas for summer activities:
1. Have a picnic.

2. Go for a walk or hike.

3. Enjoy a bonfire.

4. Grill Out.

5. Go swimming.

6. Go to the lake or beach.

7. Go to a drive-in theater.
If you have never been to a drive-in theater, you need to go! They are so cool. There was one near me, but it closed down and I was so disappointed. If there's one near you, I highly recommend you give it a try.
8. Try stargazing.

9. Go canoeing or kayaking.

If you are, however, then this is a great idea for a date, especially if you both enjoy it. If your partner hasn't gone before, maybe try something calm and relaxing to see if they like it. If you're both experienced, then you could even try handling harsher waters for something more fun and exciting. Just be sure to stay safe!
I hope these ideas help you utilize the rest of your summer by spending time with the people you love. Go out and have fun!
