I don't know about you, but this weekend is pretty much my last relaxing cabin weekend for the summer, and I plan on going out with a bang. I know at the beginning of the summer I shared a list of summertime essentials. Now I'm going to give you the list of what you need to make your final cabin weekend perfect!
Everyone needs a great pair of shoes for the water. Shoes that they absolutely don't care about wrecking, breaking, damaging or losing. Luckily, Old Navy has just the disposable shoe for the job. And because it's the end of the summer, they're on sale. Get two!
Looking for a comfy seat out on the water? Well this is the perfect balance of submersion and flotation. And it has cup holders. Trust me, it's a game changer. If that doesn't work for you, wearing a life jacket like a diaper always works too.
Even when the sun isn't quite as intense at the end of the summer, you will still definitely get burned if you aren't careful. So better get that sunscreen out. I like to use the Hawaiian Tropics stuff, because that way even if I'm just at a little lake in northern Minnesota, I still get to feel like I'm on some fancy foreign beach.
Now, while you're at Target, you might as well grab a cheap pair of shades. If you'll be floating around a lake like me, you don't want to risk losing a pair that you actually care about to the murky depths.
And then of course you'll need something to read during all that relaxation. When you aren't playing games with friends or taking naps, a nice light bit of reading material does the trick. The latest issue of People magazine is all you need, and is a great thing to have on hand for pretty much anyone to enjoy leafing through.
But of course for those of you who are reading along with our book club picks, you may still be working on this month's selection (as I am) Call the Midwife. Manageable and relatively light vacation read, making you glad you're sitting lakeside and not giving birth in the 1950's slums of London
