The List: End of the Summer Bucket List

The end is upon us. In exactly one month, summer will have ended and school will begin for us. It will be starting sooner than that for many. This year, with Darling 1 starting kindergarten, the end of the summer is even more significant for us.

It's been an outrageously hot summer for most of the country, and the humidity in the Twin Cities has been thick as a wall and as heavy as an iron weight pressing down from the heavens. This kind of weather puts a damper on summer fun in the sun.

With that said, there are still some things I really want to do before the summer is completely gone. So, despite the humidity and heat, I want to get out and get at least some of these things checked off the list.

1. Nine Nights of Music: MN History Center;
2. River Rats Ski Show: Mississippi River;
3. Movie and Music: Walker Art Center ~ Open Field;
4. A to Z Pizza Farm We did this on Tues & you can read about it here! We will go back again;
5. MN State Fair;
6. Swim at Bryant Lake Beach – We did this last weekend. We had so much fun. Again, we will be going back;
7. More Picnics at Lake Harriet;
8. St. Louis Park Splashpad;
9. Pick Fall Raspberries;
10. Breakfast on the Farm; Gale Woods Farm in Minnetrista
11. Paddle Boat Ride: Centennial Lakes.

I didn't have time to link to these things, but I'll do it later.

I really dislike the term "bucket list." But I can't think of another way to convey what I mean. So, I'm using it. Can you think of another way to say it? And what's on your list...whatever you call it?

I'm already working on my fall fun list. Over and out...
