Rollerblading Revival
Remember the thrill of cruising down the sidewalk on rollerblades? Dust off those skates and hit the pavement for a spin around the neighborhood or along Lake Michigan’s shoreline. It’s a great way to stay active while reliving those carefree summer afternoons.
Create Your Nostalgic Summer Mix
Speaking of mixes, why not create your own playlist of throwback hits? Mix up some Britney Spears, Destiny’s Child, and NSYNC with a sprinkle of Blink-182 and Spice Girls. It’s like hitting rewind on your favorite memories, one song at a time.
