Movies in the Park

I was just thinking back to the days when my husband and I were dating in college. We both had apartments full of rommmates and none of them were dating. We didn't think they'd appreciate our lovey-dovey-ness, so the park became our place. Often, after dark, we would pack up the laptop, a DVD, a blanket, and a few snacks and head to the park.

This is us...except, we were in a park, not a meadow.
And we didn't have a logo in front of our faces. :)

Oh, and my husband is WAY better looking!

Okay, let's be honest here...movies in the park could be translated into makeout in the park. Perhaps you can relate? Now, I'm sitting here wondering,

"WHAT HAPPENED to those days? Did we grow out of that? Are we too old now?"

It's not like it's hard to do or expensive...nor does it require much planning. (Okay, if you have kids, your babysitter might think it a little weird that they're being paid while you two go to the park, of all places. And your kids might hate you for going to the park without them....but, someday they'll understand.)

I see no reason why we can't still do this. So, this will be our next date night.

How about you? Is there something you did in your dating days that you wish you still did?
