I spy watercolor! Maybe we should have a garden watercolor picnic?

I love this idea. I did this once years ago and I really did do quite a bit on my list. Such a great reminder. I’m getting out the colored pencils!

Yay! I’m really sad that Substack doesn’t allow for photos in the comments, because I would LOVE to see other people’s lists 😊 Happy coloring!

I love the idea of a "what if" list.

What if I went on a picnic? What If I went kayaking? So many fun possibilities and no pressure to definitely do them.

This has made setting fun goals a lot more enjoyable!

I am on board with this! I live about a block from an elementary school, and several years ago, on the first week of summer vacation, their reader board had three lines: "Play/Swim/Read" which I have taken as my summer mantra ever since. That was my list growing up, and why shouldn't it still be my list?!? (with perhaps a few more specific additions)

I think that’s all I want from summer too (well, a little lemonade, and ice cream sandwich, and a camp out too) 😊 Thanks for sharing!

I think of it as the Kim Rickett's party: MAKE MORE PIE, PEOPLE. JUST MAKE MORE PIE ❤️
