Better Late than Never {summer} Bucket List

It is starting to sink in that summer is almost over! We have had a *very* mild summer {except for that week I complained about the heat}... like 70's most days. When my family was in town, it was even chilly. Crazy. I'm really thankful though. Especially considering that I'm outside most of each day at work. But the cooler temps combined with teaching through the summer has left me feeling like we haven't really had a summer yet. So, to remedy the fact that I feel like I haven't taken advantage of said summer, I made a summer bucket list last night. I thought about one at the beginning of the summer, but I finally wrote it down {better late than never, eh?}.
Here are a few things on my let's-make-the-most-of-the-rest-of-our-summer bucket list...
-make homemade icecream
-visit the Oak St Beach
-go to the Lincoln Hotel's rooftop deck
-go to a movie in the park
-have a picnic
-go to the Randolph Street Market
-take a *really* long walk on the Lakeshore path
-try a few more restaurants, while they still have awesome patios open!
So I figure we have a few weeks to check off as much as possible from the list. And maybe I'll even think to take pictures so I can blog about our last few summer adventures ;)
Hope you're enjoying soaking up the last bit of summer too!
