Summertime cometh

So, school will be out in a little over a week. My kids will be running free for 2 months. We have some plans, friends coming, paintball games, frisbee golf to play, and a huge house to cool. We are thinking of using our swamp cooler, now that we are in a place where we can, but when Monsoon comes it will be to humid. However, the rains cool everything off, so maybe we won't cook.
The end of the school year always seems busier than any other time, we have school things to go to, activities are ending for the year and have things to give the kids closure. We have been out a lot in the last few weeks for band concerts, school fairs, and we still have a Girl Scout function and maybe a sports banquet. (same night as GS) If that's the case we will have to tag-team it.
Now that we love out in the wild, we have to think about more things to do at home. It's 60 mils round trip just to get groceries, so we can't just run off every time we et bored. We have to figure out how to stay entertained. It seemed easier when I was a kid. We didn't have all the things kids have now, and I don't remember being bored that much. Maybe I just need to introduce my kids to roller skates and a radio.
