Spring Dating: Ideas to Kickstart the Season

Get your spring dating routine into full bloom! The weather is finally looking up, the snow is melting and the time is right for you and that special someone to kick down the front door, put the top down and head outside. We've got some essential ideas for spring dating sure to put a smile on your face as the days get a little bit longer and the sun shines a bit brighter each and every day.

Cruise the Mountains or Beach
More sun and blue skies mean it's the perfect time to hop in the car and head for the coast or hills. Plan a mid-day trip so you take advantage of the warmest part of the day and pack a lunch or plan a stop along the way for snacks. There's plenty of opportunity to dip your toes in the sand even if the water is too cold and breathe the crisp mountain air before the scorching summer comes along.

Get Parked!
Your local park is the ideal spring dating destination - it's convenient AND free! Whether you're up for a game of Frisbee or catch or simply want to plant yourselves on a blanket and take in the sun, we're betting there's a park near you that can offer you a wonderful afternoon of recreation and relaxation - whatever suits your fancy.

Smell the Roses
Most major cities have a botanical garden and spring is definitely the right time to catch all of the flowers in bloom. Plan an afternoon and schedule a leisurely stroll through one of these wonders of nature in your area. Many have educational programs, how-to classes and seminars that can not only add to the richness of your day but allow you and your special someone to explore something new together in the great outdoors.
