Go to Six Flags. Is it lame if we go to Fright Fest?
(Learn to) Ride a bike. New fall goal? I really want to be able to rent bikes when we go to St. Pete's in November.
Clean/decorate my house (and find a new one to move into this fall!). Not ready to announce anything official yet..... but stay tuned ;)
Explore neighborhoods - Cherokee, South Grand, Downtown. Didn't do this nearly enough.
Make s'mores. Sounds like something to do at the lake this weekend!
Whip up a fancy cocktail. Another lake to do!
Go to the St. Louis Zoo. Hmmmm. They're open in the fall, right?
Go golfing in Forest Park... or just ride along in the cart. Oops. Nope.
Visit the caves at Crystal City. Nope, again.
Get out of the heat and go bowling at Flamingo or Pin-up Bowl. Nope, again. Again.
Drink champagne just for the heck of it. Can you drink champagne at the lake? Or is that weird?
Try something new (like paddle boarding?). Ha. Funny story. Technically, yes I tried paddle boarding. But went into a migraine 20 minutes into the lesson, causing dizziness, nausea and numbness. Awesome, right? I had to swim my board back to shore. :(
So there you have it. Looks like this weekend I'll be making s'mores and doing some fancy drinkin'.....
Also, the picture has nothing to do with this post, except for the fact that The Boathouse in Forest Park is a quintessential summer dining destination. Maybe next year I'll ride the paddle boats!

two things: the Zoo is only closed on Christmas Day and New Years Day, so come by anytime. Also, I highly recommned the boathouse's moonlight paddle picnic - it's a little expensive (maybe $70?) but you get a picnic basket, a bottle of wine (or a bucket of beer), a lantern, and a paddleboat for the evening. It's really fun and romantic - that's where J and I got engaged!
Excellent list!
Next time you are at Hartford ask for the "Nelson". Best Iced Coffee. Maybe Nelson or Jason will be there to make it.
