Spring/Summer Fun 2014 To Do List

The first day of spring was Thursday which means it's the season to roll out a new To Do List full of fun activities we want to do in the next several months. We combined our Spring/Summer list since spring like weather doesn't always come until it's almost summertime (anyone remember the snowfall we got last May???). Almost all of our activities on the list are outside, so if we aren't able to do anything on the list until summer we won't have completely failed......we'll just have a super busy summer!


So here it is, our Spring/Summer 2014 To Do List:

  • Maquoketa Caves State Park
  • Minneapolis
  • Dyersville (Farm Toy Museum, Field of Dreams site)
  • Trainland U.S.A. (Colfax, Ia.)
  • Fishing
  • Berry picking
  • Adventureland
  • Fireworks on July 4th
  • Urbandale July 4th carnival
  • Union Park carousel
  • Swimming at Ashworth pool
  • Hiking at Jester Park
  • Ledges State Park
  • Pammel Park (Winterset)
  • Bridges of Madison County tour
  • Pella

Our past Fun To Do Lists have been quite successful, with the exception of a few activities that took us a bit longer to complete (Tanger Outlet and Honey Creek Resort from our Fall list have only been completed in the last month). We're looking forward to a very fun and very busy next several months if Mother Nature would catch up with our spring fever we'd be good to go!
