It’s shaping up to be a gorgeous summer so far, and this week’s theme with its Summer Solstice - the longest day of the year - is being outside. Because that’s what we all need more of, right? Let’s face it, there isn’t anything you can do indoors that isn’t automatically more fun outdoors. Seeing a movie; day drinking (even better on a boat!); dance party; and a free Macklemore concert, even. We brought together your ideal weekly calendar, right here.
