I’m wanting to do a few camping trips with friends and I’m also going back to school for a second degree! It’s gonna be packed, but I really wanna get outside more this summer, before the smoke rolls in. Do y’all have any fun plans?

I’ve just recently passed my driving test and bought a car, so plenty of little trips around the Peak District & Yorkshire Dales I think this summer! Might try and venture up to the Lakes too.

Having a car feels so strange, considering I’m a little late to driving - so much freedom!

Congrats that’s awesome! I’m hoping to learn soon too (in my case VERY late to driving), can only imagine how good it must feel.

Congrats on passing the driving test! There’s a lot of freedom that comes with having a car. That was my first taste back when I got it in secondary school. Feels great :)

You’ll hate to hear this, but be careful! I bumped my car a WEEK after I had passed the test. Not as bad as my aunt who got into an accident the day she passed, but still!

I’m hoping that doesn’t happen! I learned in an A3, so my car is a bit smaller which I think helps.

It’s my first summer with a driving license as well. Definitely some analysis paralysis going on now when deciding where to go for a road trip.

Assign places a number, 1-20, then roll a d20 for initiative :)

We’re going on a cruise at the start of August, which is the sort of thing I could never justify the cost of but has been on my bucket list since I was a kid and thought a cruise was the height of fanciness. In this case, it’s with husband’s family and it’s mostly paid for, so definitely can’t turn that down!

Lots of summery sewing to do in preparation. And luckily I already knit and cross stitch as well so should get on fine with the old biddies who I assume make up at least 70% of cruise passengers.

Ocean. Mostly around Greece, and I’ve never been to Greece so it’s double exciting 😄

Already been pricing up river cruises though just in case we really take to it and decide cruise life is the life for us!

Week one I’m showing all the spots in Tokyo to my buddy who gets to go for his first time. Week two we’re shinkansening to the other cities which will be new for me as well!

Attending some MLS matches up in Kansas City and spending as much time as possible with family. No big travel plans this year but definitely will be camping at state parks around the area.

I will be cooking on summer camp.

3 weeks in the middle of nowhere, bad signal, electric power from small solar panel. Fun stuff away from civilization.
