Lake Country Area Fun: The End of Summer Guide
Summer takes so long to get here and then goes by just so quickly. Before we know it the warm sunshine turns to falling leaves and then to fresh fallen snow. I for one am not excited. I have been thinking about some things I really would like to do before summer ends with my family-also some things I already have done, but think you should do too! So, I searched around and came up with all the lake country fun I could find and put it together in an end of summer guide. 40 great ideas!
