This weekend I had a friend from school visit me and another friend that also lives in the area, so we packed as much as we could into the time we had!  There's a little fruit farm about an hour away that we started of with (after Starbucks of course!).  They had little red wagons to put your berries in (that song by Miranda Lambert was stuck in my head the entire day) that made for perfect photo props ;).  It was a lot of fun to feel like we were out on the real countryside for a day.  Another highlight was a river float we went on.  I had never been but heard from so many people how cool it was so I was so excited to go on one.  To get there, we had to take so many little dirt backroads until we popped out on the river!  We parked at the bottom of the river and a shuttle took us to the top where we floated down for an hour and a half.  Its been so hot here lately that this was the perfect escape from the heat! 

In addition to this weekend, I've recently loved exploring little towns around my area.   They seem to have the best little cafes and the most beautiful areas to walk around.  Just today I met some friends for lunch in a little town on the Occoquan river!  

On another note, this white tank was great for the hot days spent outside.  The loose fit was perfect for when it got humid and sticky.  And the thin straps reduced the amount of tan lines I got in the sun :)

I've been looking for fun and different adventures this summer so let me know if you have any good ideas!
