Summer may be just one all-too-short season, but it\u2019s also a state of mind. Even if the days have begun to shorten and cool, all you need to create your own Indian summer is an artfully carefree schedule and the right mindset. Read on for our favorite activities to make fall the new summer. <\/span><\/p>\n

Mini golf<\/span><\/h3>\n

Everyone\u2019s favorite first date, mini golf is arguably even better when you\u2019re not sweltering in summer\u2019s heat. Grab your significant other (or, you know, message the guy\/gal you\u2019ve been eyeing on Hinge), a light sweater, and head out to conquer the famous windmill shot.<\/span><\/p>\n

Camping<\/span><\/h3>\n

Setting up camp and hiking through fresh fall foliage is an ideal way to transition between seasons. Head to a seaside campsite and let the salty air transport you back to the heart of summer, or enjoy the slowly changing colors in the mountains for the best of both seasons. <\/span><\/p>\n

Beach bonfires<\/h3>\n

There\u2019s nothing quite like roasting marshmallows over a bonfire while burrowing your toes in the sand. Beach bonfires are even cozier when you\u2019re wrapped in a blanket, so don\u2019t let the end of summer be the end of your beach-going days.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lake picnic<\/h3>\n

Packing a picnic and whiling away the day by the water is arguably one of the most carefree, and hence, quintessentially summery ways to spend the day. Throw in a good book with your baguette and brie, then drive, walk, or bike to your nearest lake to make the most of the still plentiful sunshine.<\/p>\n

Ros\u00e9 on a rooftop bar<\/h3>\n

Ah, a cool glass of ros\u00e9 under the summer stars. Lucky for us, rooftop bar season is not yet over, and the sunsets and stars are just as beautiful in fall as summer. We\u2019d bet you\u2019ll enjoy that ros\u00e9 \u2014 or even gin and tonic if you\u2019re feeling wild \u2014 just as much now as you did in those halcyon June days.<\/span><\/p>\n

Outdoor theatre\/concert<\/span><\/h3>\n

Most outdoor venues have event schedules extending well past August. From local theater in your neighborhood park to big-name concerts at the Hollywood Bowl, a little looking is all it takes to find an outdoor venue near you that\u2019s just begging you to grab a six-pack and a lawn chair, and kick back for a performance. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kayak and SUP<\/span><\/h3>\n

Being active outdoors is one of the best parts of summer \u2014\u00a0and it doesn\u2019t have to end just because the calendar claims the seasons are changing. Whether you\u2019re near the ocean, a river, or lake, renting a kayak or stand-up paddleboard is an ideal way to get some outdoorsy exercise that\u2019s way more fun than hitting the gym.<\/span><\/p>\n

Farmer\u2019s market<\/h3>\n

As fun as it is to pick your own berries, fresh produce is actually even better in fall. After your Sunday morning brunch, scope out your local market to scoop up some crisp apples, fresh figs, and tasty persimmons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
