As we approach August, we could all use some extra inspiration to the maximize the limited summer sunshine. We could include short day trips, picnic lunches, hiking, seeing family, and enjoying the pool in our plans for staycation. 

There’s plenty of local beaches and parks where we could picnic or visit conservation areas for some hiking and nature walks. Looking for something quiet just for you, to relax and unwind? Here are some ideas to carve out summer fun on your own: register for an outdoor yoga and/or zumba class, take a drive to a winery or just read a book in your own backyard!

 For all my Mississauga friends, please make sure enjoy all of the city’s offerings! From patios to picnics, fishing to farmers’ markets, shopping to splash pads and food trucks to festivals – there is so much to see and do for all ages this summer in Mississauga.
