What's your favorite way to spend a summer evening?


Porch sitting, grilling, concerts, walks, stargazing, reading, or something else?

 

It would be great to hear how each of you enjoy it!

Out in the backyard on the bank of the river, fishing pole in hand and bait in the water. Make it even better, catfish on my hook.

Very, very cool!  Are you using an app like Duolingo or Babel?  I’ve used Duolingo, but looking for others to use as well.

 I love reading books but with a full school class load, I haven't had a lot of time to this summer. A perfect summer evening would be to sit in the yard, preferably mosquito free, and read a book with a nice breeze blowing and maybe ambient lighting and soft music with my husband, just enjoying the peace and serenity. HOWEVER, I live in Georgia and the humidity and mosquitoes are a mood killer. LOL plus side though, I love watching lightning bugs. 🌃

Relaxing and sharing the end of the day with friends and neighbors out on the deck or front porch, listening to a baseball game in the background from a tv in the house or a radio ( or Bluetooth speaker😉) It doesn't matter what team, or who wins. Just like good music it's a nice summer background soundtrack that evokes good memories and good feelings.

 I like going to free outdoor concerts put on by my town and others (I pick based on what sounds like it might be good).
