Eat Outside Day!

What can you do to enjoy the day? A Picnic,
cookout, trip to a park, pool party, block party (talk about impromptu), or other favorite spot?

Will you kick back, bike, hike, ride, drive or what?

Will you need a packed lunch, potluck or BBQ?

Who will you take or invite?

If you can celebrate the day, have fun! Make some memories? Just try to take some trail mix along, either homemade or purchased due to the short notice!
