National Play in the Sand Day

| August 11, 2011 | 0 Comments

 

August 11th is National Play in the Sand Day.  It’s still hot outside and summer is not over yet, which means you still have the opportunity to take a quick getaway.  Who doesn’t love going to the beach?  I live about twenty minutes away, and try to go whenever possible.  Most weekends we get up early, pack a cooler full of snacks and drinks, and hit the road.  We always bring a football, and randomly we’ll bring cornhole, bocce ball, or ladder golf (click on the links for further explanation).  My friends and I will stay from about 11:00 AM to… whenever we’re too tired or too burnt to stay any longer.  If you can’t get to a beach, why not head to the closest lake?  Maybe go for a little camping trip?  Tubing is also a great activity!

 

Wouldn’t it be nice to take a weekend and drive over to the closest sandy getaway?  Pick a date and meet some friends, or take the family for a little rest and relaxation.  The beach never gets old.  If you have the opportunity to make the trip, then why not take it?  Take a break, you deserve it.
