Heat Wave

Phew. We made it through yesterday's heat. It's still going to be in the upper 80's all weekend, so here are some suggestions on how to enjoy your day off and beat the heat!

  • Head over to the Thorton A. Sullivan Park at Silver Lake for a quick swim, or rent a paddle boat for the afternoon!
  • Swimming at McCollum Park Pool, which tends to be packed during hot days but the kids love it!
  • Have a picnic and swim at the Martha Lake Park, and then walk across the street to the fresh fruit stand for some great local produce (located just across 164th.)
  • Enjoy a treat at one of the many air conditioned restaurants or cafes at the Mill Creek Town Center. Personally, we love The Spotted Cow for their great ice cream, awesome coffee, and laid back atmosphere.
  • Grab a fun sprinkler from Target or Fred Meyer, stick it in the backyard, and let the kids (or adults) go wild!
What do you do to stay cool and entertained during a HOT summer day? Email your suggestions to mymillcreek@hotmail.com!
