It has finally arrived…the first day of summer, or Summer Solstice. After what seemed like a never-ending winter here in New England this is a day we’ve all been waiting for.
Long, warm summer days enjoying the outdoors are definitely cause for celebration, and Reader’s Digest has put together a list of 26 nostalgic ways to usher in the summer. Some of our favorites include:
- Burn a marshmallow
- Sip a mint julep
- Hit up an ice cream truck
- Jump off a diving board
- Make summer fruit skewers
- Watch a movie outdoors
- Leap through a sprinkler
- Take an after-dinner stroll
Check out the full list, and no matter what you do, be sure to get outside and revel in this brilliant season.
Happy Summer!
