Yay! Summer is here! Summer isn’t my favorite season, even though my birthday is on the solstice, but I sure do love what it has to offer! The days are longer, outdoor activities are a dime a dozen, and people are in happier moods because of all that sunlight and Vitamin D!
I love making lists of ways to celebrate things, and the seasonal changes are no different! I made you a list of one hundred things to add to your Summer To Do List, and a printable (colorful) PDF with my own ridiculous illustrations on it. You can download that for free below. If you’re a southern hemisphere babe, check out the Winter Bucket List!

Great idea!
great list for summer Leazer timing…..
Hey! Sounds like a great idea, but maybe I would add more things to do with more people.
Sounds awesome. You’re welcome to make your own list! There are plenty of other bucket lists out there. It might be a good idea of for people to have things to do without people especially during a pandemic. 🙂
