As we all know, summer is quickly approaching. School is just about over, and the best time of the year is only a couple weeks away. Summer is such a great relaxing time in teenagers’ lives. It is the long waited break that we have been waiting for all school year. Some people have a whole summer of events planned out. While, others just go with the flow. If you are needing some ideas on what to in the summer, below you will find a list of fun things to do in the summer.

1. Take a road trip: Who doesn’t love driving to a fun destination, with their music all the way up? The anticipation of arriving at a certain spot is so fun. You could go with your friends, family, or by yourself if you wanted!
2. Get ice cream with friends: Clearly the best summer treat to get. There are so many different locations for good ice cream in the Quad Cities, and ice cream is not too expensive.
3. Watch the sunset: After a long day, sitting and watching the sunset is one of the most peaceful moments of the day, in my opinion. And not to mention, they are so gorgeous, and you can capture those moments with your phone by taking pictures.
4. Go to a water park: These are definitely not for everyone for multiple reasons like germs and people there, but if they don’t bother you, they are not crazy expensive, and you get to spend the whole day swimming and going down water-slides.
5. Drive in movie: The vibes that these give off are so good. Everyone loves watching movies, and going to a drive in with your friends is so much fun!

Have a great summer everyone!!
