How Many Dips in the Water Does Your Ideal Summer Have?
There are people who LIVE in the water during the summer . . . and people who avoid it like the plague. But overall, most of us enjoy taking a dip to cool off.
A new survey asked people about their IDEAL SUMMER, and it found that on average, people hope to get in the water 11 times every summer. That includes pools, oceans, and lakes.
Here are some other stats for the perfect summer:
1. 14 days with loved ones.
2. 13 burgers.
3. 11 hot dogs.
4. 11 scoops of ice cream. (It’s worth pointing out that these numbers were SELF-REPORTED . . . so let’s just say it’s more like . . . 82 scoops.) (???)
5. 11 sunsets.
6. Eight sunrises.
7. Seven days ON the water . . . things like boating, tubing, and kayaking.
8. Five “new experiences.”
9. Three different adventures or short trips, and two trips across state lines.
10. Two entire bottles of sunscreen.
(And a partridge in a pear tree. Sorry, just a little Christmas in July.)
