8 Easy Summer Dates You Can Plan in 5 Minutes
Head to the fair
Tis the season for fairs. Though you may be deterred by the fierce crowds, it’s a perfect time to step outside of your comfort zone and let yourself be a teenager again. Grab your S.O., eat a corn dog or some other deep-fried delicacy, challenge each other to a game of Toss the Ball into the Goldfish Bowl, and take a spin on the Ferris wheel.
Keep it simple with a picnic
Picnics require such little effort, but offer a whole lot of romance. When crowds and money don’t fit the bill, grab a bottle of wine, cheese, and crackers from home, a cozy blanket, and a gorgeous view, and you have a romantic night ready to go. Want to kick it up a notch? Skip the sunset and make it a moonlight affair—just make sure to bring extra layers!
Go camping
So you might think camping requires a lot of attention to detail, but if you keep it simple and just go for the night, you can keep planning to a minimum. All you really need is a tent, a sleeping bag and pillows, warm and comfy clothes, a flashlight, and plenty of food and drink to keep you satisfied. Something about sipping wine under the stars, staring into each other’s eyes over the fire, and cuddling up in a rugged atmosphere just screams romance.
Go to a baseball game
A ball game can be such a fun date if you have a local ballpark or stadium nearby for either a national team or a farm team. Eat foods you normally never allow yourself, drink a cold beer or two, and root for your favorite team, cheering along with the crowd and high-fiving your S.O.
